This program is different from other institutions in Arizona, in that it lacks the atmosphere of an institution, instead providing a loving, relaxing atmosphere where residents feel secure and comfortable, while being highly supervised. This has been shown to be the atmosphere in which teenagers find the greatest measure of success. If your son is dealing with depression, anxiety, lack of self-confidence, trauma, or drug and alcohol abuse issues, our program’s staff is able to deal with these problems and help them to heal.

Creating a program that does not feel like an institution is crucial for helpful therapy. If boys do not feel relaxed and secure, they will not be willing to be as forthcoming as they will have to be to enable our counselors and therapists to truly treat root issues that cause dysfunctional and problematic behaviors.

The academic program offered at this academy is uniquely designed with unhealthy teens in mind. Other boarding schools insist upon maintaining high standards of academic excellence. At this program, we understand that troubled teens usually have fallen behind in school and are in need of specific academic support that can get them back on track.

While academic excellence is, of course, the ideal, this program is designed to deal with the specialized needs of ailing teenagers. More than just academics, personal work is necessary to change problematic thought cycles that underlie many of the problems teens are experiencing. Simply addressing surface issues like behavior and education will not be enough in terms of shaping a real, enduring modification in these young people. In fact, once the emotional and spiritual elements of these teenager’s problems are addressed, they tend to straighten out in other parts of their lives, including academics and behavior.

At this program, we push for a regaining of their natural interest in recreation and the outdoors. Keeping teens physically active increases fitness and confidence, which are essential additions to the therapy students receive. Students at this program learn effective, real-life work skills. This teaches work ethic and accountability, as well as increasing self-esteem. Teenagers are taught, in this therapeutic environment, to match work and play, creating a practical and healthy work ethic. This goes on into their life after the program, enabling them to become useful, productive members of society.

Within this secure and caring program, students can learn principles, and discover God. This is the only proven strategy for teens to be rid of the selfishness and self-centeredness that leads to most of their unhealthy behaviors, from addiction to other behavioral disorders. Within a healthy structure, and surrounded by healthy influences, students develop a new, healthy peer group that will hold them accountable and influence them in their new, principled way of living.

Dysfunctional teens without necessary treatment can be greatly at risk.
