Youth Homes

From our humble beginnings of in 1971, we’ve grown to a five million dollar organization that serves 150 kids and families each day. We operate nine group homes in three Western Montana communities and have a strong foster care and adoption program. We offer the same support for bio-families that we have provided to substitute families all along. We do this work because we believe we share in the responsibility of raising children, and it is our integrated efforts that provide the chance for success many times over. We have, and can, change lives. We help these children feel stronger and have more faith in themselves and the adults around them. We recognize that in meeting the long-term needs of our youth, we have a social responsibility to strengthen the environment in which they live now and will live in the future. To that extent, we engage and educate our youth in sustainable lifestyles in each home and program. The mission of Youth Homes is “to help every youth feel safe, have a sense of belonging and find a place to call home.” Our vision is “To provide an array of services to support children and families of Western Montana, regardless of their ability to pay.”
