Ranch Resilience Camp
Come connect, breathe, and learn with us!
We invite parents and youth to register for this unique Saturday day camp at Happy Dog Ranch in Sedalia. Through hands-on experiences with our incredible animal “faculty,” participants learn how to make healthy choices by staying grounded, connected, protected, and nurtured.
While these animals depend on ranch staff to care for them, they offer powerful lessons about something uniquely yours—your freedom to choose. Through their example, you’ll discover how to build resilience, strengthen your mind, and create a life rooted in intentional, healthy decisions.

What to Expect
Throughout the day, parents and youth will spend time both apart and together, creating space for individual growth and shared connection. For most of the experience, each group will journey separately across the ranch, engaging with animals and participating in meaningful, hands-on activities designed to help you feel grounded, connected, and supported.
Parents will also be invited into guided group discussions that nurture personal resilience and offer practical insight into how to more deeply support and connect with your children.
At special moments during the day, parents and youth will reconnect for powerful, shared experiences with the animals, opportunities to apply what you’ve learned, strengthen your relationship, and create lasting memories.
Lunch will be donated by Fire House Subs.
