The Ranch

Parrott Creek Ranch (PCR) is a basic residential program for juvenile male identified youth ages 13-18 who are in the custody of The Oregon Youth Authority (OYA) and are in need of Behavioral Rehabilitation Services. 

The Ranch is a mindfulness-based program. All staff working in the program are conversant in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and facilitate treatment groups in mindfulness, emotional regulation and new skill acquisition for the youth. PCR uses Collaborative and Proactive Solutions as a behavioral intervention to help youth identify lagging skills and create their own solutions to internal and external problems. Family therapy is offered to keep youth connected with their loved ones and increase the likelihood of success if the youth is returning home at the end of treatment.

Parrott Creek works in collaboration with Clackamas Education Service District to provide educational services on-site for the youth in our programs. CESD provides a teacher and behavioral coach as well as specialists throughout the week to meet youth’s Individualized Education Plan.
