    Welcome to Idaho Youth Ranch Hays House

    Treasure Valley’s only 24/7 shelter for runaway or homeless youth

     

    You Are Not Alone

    When hope seems lost, we leave a light on. Hays House is here for kids, ages 9 to17, who are runaways, homeless, victims of abuse or neglect, or just need a safe place to stay

     If you, or someone you know, needs a place to stay, then we are here to help - no judgment, no pressure. 

    We also provide respite care, which means we can help if you might just need a couple of days to take some space from your family. We get it, sometimes you just need a break.
