ABOUT
SPECIAL K RANCH
 Special
K Ranch is located on 230 acres, 10 miles West of Park
City and 8 miles East of Columbus, Montana. The property
is bordered on the north by Interstate 90 and on the south
by the Yellowstone River. It is accessible by taking the
frontage road from either Park City or Columbus.
The
ranch serves both men and women, ages 18 and older, whose
primary disability is mental retardation. The program
is designed to serve people who may need to live within
a supportive community all of their lives. It is not designed
to deal with those individuals exhibiting extreme behavior,
emotional disturbances, or criminal delinquency. Residents
to be admitted must have the ability to manage primary
self-help skills and to communicate basic needs. Special
K Ranch serves 24 people in six separate residences.
Contributions
are received from community service clubs, churches, individuals,
and private and corporate foundations. It is the goal
of the ranch to become as self-sufficient as possible
through income from ranch production, i.e.; livestock,
greenhouse and nursery, and garden produce sales. More
