About The Burke Foundation

Founded in 1973 as a residential treatment program, Burke Center for Youth is composed Pathfinder’s Ranch, Child Placement Agency, and Transition Home. Pathfinder’s Ranch is Burke Center for Youth’s residential treatment facility for 10-17 year old boys. Every resident is in foster care having been removed from his home due to trauma. We help these adolescents to begin the healing process through therapy, education at the on-site school, and the day-to-day chores involved in maintaining our 55 acres. Burke Center’s Child Placement Agency was started in 1990. There are four offices in the State of Texas that offer foster and adoption services to any child from within the state. Burke Center’s Transition Home is a residential program for young men that have aged out of foster care, but are not yet able to live independently. The program will offer job skills, life skills education, and college enrollment.
