A Hub of Conservative Activity The Reagan Ranch Center has become a hub of conservative activity on the West Coast. Not only home to Young America’s Foundation staff and programs, the Center is utilized by like-minded organizations, private foundations, and educational institutions as a place to meet, share ideas, and gain inspiration. Since the Reagan Ranch Center opened its doors in 2006, Young America’s Foundation has been honored to host the Clare Boothe Luce Policy Institute, Citizens United Foundation, the Phillips Foundation, Eagle Publishing, Bruce Eberle and Associates, Royale Energy, National Right to Work, The Fund for American Studies, the David Horowitz Freedom Center, the Liberty Fund, and the Heritage Foundation, among other groups, for board meetings, events, and conferences.

Striking a Spark President Reagan said, “There is a flickering spark in all of us, which, if struck at just the right age, can light up the rest of our lives.” That is why Young America’s Foundation saved the Reagan Ranch, and that is why the Reagan Ranch Center is so important. The Ranch and Ranch Center are the showrooms to share President Reagan’s ideas with future generations. Much more than an encounter with history alone, Young America’s Foundation’s Reagan Ranch programs strike a spark in the lives of young people, activating them for decades of conservative leadership for our country.
