Good Samaritan Boys Ranch

Good Samaritan Boys Ranch is on a journey to confront the forces that push families into foster care and transform the systems that fail youth as they leave it. Founded in 1959 as an orphanage north of Springfield, Good Samaritan has since blossomed into a spectrum of residential and community=based services that brings enrichment to youth and families in the Missouri foster care system. In 2024, Good Samaritan served on 390 children and families, helping prevent the cycles of trauma, family separation, and homelessness for generations to come.

Good Samaritan's mission is to empower youth in foster care and families in crisis to heal from trauma and build resiliency!
