At Milestone Ranch We Believe:

• Circumstances do not dictate success.
• Life should be an adventure filled with expectancy and hope.
• Every child has an intrinsic, God-breathed identity to discover.
• “Training up a child in the way they should go” looks different for each person.
• Relationship and responsibility work hand in hand for positive outcomes.
• Boundaries and rules are healthy and protect us from poor choices.
• Transitions don’t have to be traumatic. The “next” thing can be the “best” thing.
• We are all called to make a difference in the lives of others.
• Discovering our purpose actually propels us to act and make a difference for those in our midst.
