About Us

The Ranch

The mission of The Ranch is to develop a community venue through collaboration to empower people with special needs by providing opportunities for inclusive training and employment in agricultural, recreational, therapeutic, and related enterprises.

The Ranch is a program provided by United Cerebral Palsy of San Luis Obispo and is dedicated to achieving better physical, emotional, and spiritual health for everyone involved.  Its central location is at Christ Classical School at 880 Laureate Lane, San Luis Obispo, CA 93405

Why “The Ranch”?

The Ranch is an open air work site available for adults with disabilities located in beautiful San Luis Obispo.  This site affords adults with disabilities the opportunity for training and employment in the agriculture, recreation, and therapeutic fields.  Our primary goal at The Ranch is providing a sense of empowerment and inclusion to a group of people who are far too often excluded from society.

We currently have a work crew on site five days a week.  They tend our garden, fruit trees and provide overall maintenance of The Ranch.  We hope to add a few animals to the property, giving the employees valuable hands on experience and knowledge of animal husbandry.
