Charles Winkler, counselor for Buckeye Boys Ranch, explains the need for their Life Skills Education in when adolescents are placed in independent living situations without having learned the most basic independent living skills, the results are often devastating for these youngsters.

These youth become an added burden and/or threat to society instead of becoming independent and productive adults."
