While we would love to be able to help every child, that is just not possible.

Children are considered for placement based on the ability of Shiloh Christian Children’s Ranch to meet a child’s individual needs. The application and provider records are carefully reviewed by Shiloh placement team members, then available openings are reviewed to determine whether or not the two are compatible.

Homeparent strengths and skillsets, educational needs and services, and the needs of the children already in the home are just a few of the details considered by the placement team prior to acceptance. A concerted effort is made by all team members to ensure the best possible placement outcome.

Shiloh Christian Children’s Ranch does not have a waiting list and applicants are not placed in the order in which their application is received. Placement acceptance is based solely on an applicant’s potential to benefit from placement with Shiloh Christian Children’s Ranch.
