Founded in 1973 as a residential treatment program on a Driftwood ranch, Burke Center is now composed of three divisions: Pathfinder's Ranch, Child Placement Agency, and Transition Homes. Pathfinder's Ranch is Burke Center for Youth's residential treatment facility for 11-17-year-old boys. Every resident who comes to us has been removed from their home due to abuse and it's associated behaviors. We help these adolescents to begin the healing process through therapy (individual, group, equine), education at the on-site school, and the day-to-day jobs involved with working the grounds. 80% of our Ranch program graduates are able to transition into typical life and continue their forward progress. In 1990, Burke Center Child Placement Agency was created to help find the perfect foster or forever home for any child in need around Texas, whether male or female. There are currently four active offices in the state. Every office is able to take the journey from gathering information on fostering a child all the way to the completion of his or her adoption. In 2016, Burke Center Transition Homes begins construction. This division is the next phase in our organization's journey to help foster children not only to look forward, but to move forward. Burke Center Transition homes are residential programs for young men from the state of Texas who have aged out of foster care, but will not be able to live independently yet. The program will offer continued therapy, job skills and placement, college enrollment, and continued life skills education. The extra support is readily available during this difficult transition to our biological children, and we are proud to offer the same to our Burke children. Whether through treatment, placement, or a little extra stability, the ultimate goal at Burke Center for Youth is to help children rebuild their lives in a manner that will break the cycle of abuse and give them the tools necessary to succeed in life.
