A Special Thanks to a wonderful careing person.

Although I have only been associated with Dr. Donna Otabachian and the Ranch Good Days organization for a few months, I would like to thank Dr. Donna Otabachian for her work with these girls, her steadfast effort in making this project a reality.

Thanks Donna.

Press Release - New Web Site

Over the past few months we have revamped our web site at http://www.ranchgooddays.org and have added many new features and informational sections. We have also made a move from our Rocky Mountain heritage, and have settled in East Texas. We are currently assisting several girls between the age of 10 and 17, and are working on plans to expand our facilities in the near future. Our Equine partnership program that started at the ranch in Colorado has been such a success that we have also brought the concept to Texas.

We will be releasing more news articles in the near future on our web site:

Our History:



Ranch Good Days was created to be a safe haven for teen girls in the Rocky Mountains, especially serving those youngsters of the Mountain Indians, now the Ute nations of Colorado and Utah. The Ute Indians are matrilineal and a people from the horse culture. But they have very little support for their teen girls to mature happy, healthy, and college eligible. Our school's culture was emboldened by this situation and our program was designed to inform our teen girls about their heritage and encourage them to identify with leaders in which they are alike. We also wanted them to learn about the accomplishments of their people, to recognize their language and also to understand their history. We have since served girls from other tribes and nations, always maintaining the spiritual and cultural base to our program.
