Eagles' Wings Youth Ranch
Eagles' Wings Youth Ranch exists to meet the spiritual, educational, and social needs of financially disadvantaged, at-risk youth and their families in central New Mexico.
Eagles' Wings Youth Ranch meets the needs of at-risk youth through a FREE summer camp and mentoring program focused on prevention and early intervention centered around relationships. The entrance into the Eagles' Wings program is through a five day summer camp for youth ages 10-12, rotating weeks of boys and girls. EWYR provides a FREE camp and mentoring program, transportation to and from activities, provision of most needs of the camper (they bring their own clothes), low camper to staff ratio, emphasis on "Making Right Choices".
Campers learn responsibility and teamwork by being challenged in their weaknesses and encouraged in their strengths. They do this through swimming, archery, ropes course, zip line, sportsmanship, horsemanship, indoor games, outdoor adventures, small group learning experiences. The mentoring aspect of our program includes home visits, reunion camps, mailings and phone calls, tutoring, weekend retreats, incentives, bible studies and connection to a local church if requested.
