About Us

Rocky Creek Youth Ranch is built on a legacy of care, dedication, and transformation. Since 2015, we have been committed to empowering youth by providing a safe, structured, and supportive environment where they can overcome challenges and unlock their full potential.

Established in 2015

Rocky Creek Youth Ranch began as a vision to provide support and care for at-risk youth. Originally a church camp in the 1970s and 80s, the property transitioned into a family farm before becoming the sanctuary it is today. Founders Steve Sutton and Cliff Talley brought this vision to life, dedicating over a year to create a place where youth could find guidance, hope, and the tools for a brighter future.

Our Vision

We believe every child deserves the opportunity to succeed. By providing trauma-informed care and resources such as education, counseling, and mentorship, we aim to help youth overcome their past, unlock their potential, and "dream with their eyes wide open."

Our Mission

Rocky Creek Youth Ranch is dedicated to empowering youth by providing a nurturing, trauma-informed environment that fosters resilience, builds confidence, and equips them with the tools needed for a successful future. We strive to inspire hope, instill a sense of belonging, and help every child envision and achieve their potential.
