Dakota Boys and Girls Ranch provides residential treatment services to kids ages 10-17 utilizing two different levels of care (PRTF and QRTP). This is an agency that utilizes a team approach with Occupational Therapists, Therapists, Psychologists, Psychiatrists, Case Managers, Nurses, On-site school staff, and Residential Treatment Specialists. Social workers often are in a role of a case manager and that role is to make sure that every aspect of a kid's treatment is being taken care of and serves as a liaison between the treatment team and the referral/parent.
