Hope Ranch/Star Meadows Academy in Whitefish, MT is excited to announce two graduations from our program, Journey to a Life of Christian Integrity, in the next two weeks. 

For a limited time, we will have openings in our program.  We wanted to make you aware of this should our program be a good fit for clients you serve. 

We specialize in serving young women with ODD-type behaviors, ADHD, bipolar, depression, high conflict in families, moderate drug and alcohol issues, experimental issues with drugs and alcohol, truancy, and self-harm that does not require repeated hospitalization.  Based on our remote location, we do accept involuntary admissions and high-risk runaways.

We screen for violence, conduct disordered behavior, reactive attachment, drug and alcohol use that is in need of rehab, Axis II traits that would disrupt the milieu of the student community, and extreme eating disorders.  We believe parents and families must be our partners in this "Journey," so we communicate and work with them in both the initial and ongoing development of her treatment plan, as well as weekly progress reports -through phone calls, emails, and pictures.

Our year-round academic program is rigorous and each student's curriculum is  personalized through the development of individualized education goals.  Our student-to-teacher ratio is 1:6.  Students achieving the appropriate academic success can earn a high school diploma.  Those who continue their education after graduating from Hope Ranch can transfer all credits to their new school.

Our tuition is $5200 per month - all-inclusive.  There are no other fees, and excepting for winter outerwear, we provide clothing/uniforms.  Our admissions process is very streamlined and designed to work in a way that is most comfortable for you and your clients.  As a level program, the time each student spends at Hope Ranch is determined by the decisions she makes, the behaviors in which she engages, and her personal and therapeutic growth.  The average time is 16 months.

It would be my pleasure to discuss with you further the various aspects of our program.  Our website is: http://www.hoperanchmt.org  Please do not hesitate to contact me:  (406) 862-7871 or by email: jimc@hoperanchmt.org
