Since 1998 KIDS RANCH has been connecting at-risk youth, ages 6-10, with caring community members. They build self-esteem and self-respect through educational and recreational programs. Staff provide free or reduced-rate early intervention and prevention programs within four Wisconsin school districts—Baraboo, Reedsburg, Wisconsin Dells, and Sauk Prairie helping to make a difference int the lives of over 160 children each year through its programs.
At the helm of this grassroots organization is Penny Johnson. Penny is a multi-talented and skilled leader with a vast amount of experience working with children and teens as a Youth Services Teen Specialist & Volunteer Coordinator with the Baraboo Public Library; a ​Volunteer in the Baraboo Public Schools; and as a Vice President, & President of the Baraboo School District Board of Education. She also has a BGS in Management, with an emphasis on Organizational Effectiveness from Brigham Young University.
She's one of those committed caretakers who has to slow down in order to work at a pace that most of us can only aspire towards reaching.
