Volunteer Program

Lend a Helping Hand
As a volunteer at Ranch Ehrlo, you can help our youth develop a brighter future. Volunteers play an important role in the lives of our young people. Volunteers allow us to do many things we would otherwise not be able to do. They also provide youth with the reassurance that people do care and that youth are valued-members of the greater community. It is sometimes that little extra that can make an all-important difference in a young person's life.

The need for specific volunteer positions is identified by the staff at Ranch Ehrlo. We also welcome and will consider your suggestions to develop a specific Volunteer role and may utilize your resources to enhance our program and services.
