About us
We believe that all children should have the support they need to succeed in school and life. But for some, things like poverty, family instability, abuse and neglect threaten that support. At Lad Lake, 95% of the youth in our care come from a family in crisis unable to support them as they wish; and most suffer from post-traumatic stress disorder and serious anxiety disorders. Here in our community, Lad Lake is the emergency room of the child welfare system. We provide kids safety, individualized therapy, and skill-building for independence. Whether it's support for foster kids, mentors for troubled youth, or a safe-haven for exploited and abused girls, Lad Lake counselors cultivate stability and self-reliance for more than 1,100 kids and their families every year. For eight generations, Lad Lake has prided itself on evolving to meet tour community's most pressing needs. Our experience tells us the best way to create long-term success is through proven programs that foster healthy relationships, strengthen families, and connect youth to community resources. In this way, we can see that kids get a second chance in life, and opportunities they need to succeed.

Big shoutout to one of our Unit Managers, Lexxus, and a group of our youth for their heartfelt gesture! They put together cute little gift bags and treated our St. Rose residential team to delicious subs - just because!

Dearest Followers, Our Dousman Campus is HUGE (over 300 acres!), and we rely on golf carts to help our staff get around quickly and meet resident/grounds needs. We are currently in search of safe, functional golf carts to be gifted. Tag your favorite golf course and share this with friends and family!
