Brave Enough

Please help out by wearing blue on Oct 24 to show your support.

We are celebrating 5 years at the Be Brave Ranch! This week, 5 years ago we began to treat the first cohort of children. The Little Warriors Be Brave Ranch by ...Ray LaBonte and Family opened its doors in the fall of 2014 and became the first facility of its' kind, dedicated to providing trauma informed, evidence-based treatment to children who have been sexually abused. Clinical data results confirm the success of the Be Brave Ranch treatment program for boys and girls aged 8-12 and girls aged 13-16. The results include highly significant reductions in post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression and anxiety. Additionally, the intensive and comprehensive treatment program significantly improves self-esteem, cognitive abilities and resiliency. We believe this will lead to profound long-term benefits including reduced mental-health related issues and enriched outcomes for these children in the future. * Since 2014, over 300 children and families have participated in the Be Brave Ranch program. *Our Clinical Team has provided 61,800 hours of trauma informed therapy. *Rugby, our amazing facility dog trained by Dogs with Wings, joined the team as a co-therapist in 2018. *In late 2018, we launched a new program for girls aged 13-16. * Additional programs added to treatment include sensory regulation interventions and Indigenous Elder teachings. Thank you to each and every one of you who has supported us along the way. Together; we are changing lives. #bebraveranch #evidencebased #traumainformed
