Teaghlach Ranch is dedicated to offering a place of renewal & connection for foster, adoptive, and kinship parents. We offer support and encourage foster and adoption parents to continue their journey.
In 5 years, we will have built an experience that all foster and adoptive parents want to enjoy. At Teaghlach we will offer a retreat which includes connection with other foster and adoptive parents, wellness and renewal, with a first class treatment that is unique and well deserved.
Ryan & Mandy were high school sweethearts, have been married 24 years and have 5 children (3 biological and 2 adopted).
Mandy has a degree in accounting, however has spent the last 10+ years actively involved in different local foster organizations while learning all she can about trauma and the effects on the brain.
Ryan has spent 20+ years in the technology industry where he is most recently the Sr executive of the technical engineering teams. Ryan has led numerous teams over his career, focused on building culture, developing leaders and executing to achieve the organization vision and mission.
Mandy got the couple started with her passion for fostering in 2010. After fostering and serving in the foster/adopt community – learning the joys, pain and the struggles of the system – Ryan and Mandy saw an opportunity to support families in a different way. By offering foster and adoptive parents the space to get away for a much needed break they deserve, even if only for a few days, to recharge and reconnect.
And then Teaghlach Ranch was born…

In this they have hopefully been able to provide a little support and love to those foster and adoptive families around them.
