youth for over 40 years. During these 40 years, the
role of the Resident Instructor has been an integral
part in ministering to the youth that we serve. A
new Youth Specialist position has been created to
work with a short term assessment team as boys
come into Rawhide. Located on the Wolf River
in Northeastern Wisconsin, Rawhide’s campus is
situated on 575 acres, 30 minutes west of Appleton,
Wisconsin. Rawhide takes a completely unique
approach to helping court-referred and at-risk
young men. Instead of impersonal, institutional
living, home-like residences each have up to ten
young men, a set of houseparent’s (a husband and
wife team), and two Resident Instructors or Youth
Specialists. Young men see the role that faith, love
and respect play in a family setting; many have
never experienced the caring family atmosphere that
Rawhide provides. The staff in each of Rawhide’s
six youth homes lives in the home and shares their
lives with the boys.
