UPDATE: The Regenerative Ranch Foundation has officially launched its mission to support adopted youth and their families with a ribbon-cutting ceremony held on October 23, 2023, at their office located at 1100 Main Street, Suite D, Fortuna. This newly established non-profit, founded in 2024, aims to provide essential services tailored to the unique needs of adoptive families during challenging times.
Program Coordinator Amy Scolari emphasized the urgency of their mission, stating, “Our goal is to walk beside adoptive families through their hardest seasons, helping them move beyond impossible crossroads into a new landscape of healing.” The foundation recognizes that every child’s path to healing is different, necessitating a personalized approach to care.
The Regenerative Ranch Foundation offers an array of individualized wraparound services designed to rebuild strength, trust, and belonging for adopted youth. Scolari explained, “Every wraparound plan is personalized, blending clinical care with holistic and complementary therapies to support the whole child: body, mind, and spirit.” This innovative approach positions the organization as more than just a non-profit; it is a vibrant community of clinicians, mentors, and advocates dedicated to restoring stability and connection.
In collaboration with the California State Adoptions Assistance Program, the foundation addresses gaps in the foster care and adoption system. As traditional mental health care often falls short, the foundation enhances support by integrating diverse practices such as equine therapy, art and music, neurofeedback, and land-based healing.
Scolari reassured families in need: “We meet our clients where they’re at to understand what will really work best for them.” This commitment underscores their dedication to ensuring that no adoptive family faces their struggles alone. “We’re here with you,” Scolari added, emphasizing their mission to help families navigate their healing journeys.
The launch of the Regenerative Ranch Foundation signifies a vital step forward for the Fortuna community, offering hope and support to those who often feel isolated in their challenges. Families can learn more about the foundation and its services by contacting them via email at [email protected].
As the foundation begins its work, community members are encouraged to share the news and support this important cause, ensuring that every adopted youth and family receives the care and assistance they deserve. Stay tuned for more updates as the Regenerative Ranch Foundation embarks on this impactful journey.
