Juvenile Boot Camps and Boot Camp Alterntatives For Struggling Teens

• Accountability and Self-Discipline (Merit-based system)
• Progressive Academics (we are fully accredited schools)
• Self Esteem and Character Building Courses / Seminars
• Parent Education/Seminars and Family Weekends.


In addition, we have adolescent psychological and psychiatric services available at some of our campuses to address psychological or psychiatric needs of teens.

It is our belief that teenagers do not get up in the morning and set out to have a bad day, although it truly seems that way! I don't think they look in the mirror and say, Gee, today I think I will have a miserable day. I'll get in trouble at school, at home, cause as many problems as possible, become a failure and be as ugly and miserable as possible. We propose that teens are really no different from us in what they are trying to create for their lives, they have just gotten sucked into the world and into a negative peer culture which teaches false philosophies and tools.

What TOOLS is your teen using?


• Defiance
• Disrespect
• Manipulation
• Drugs/alcohol
• Refusing accountability
• Irresponsibility
• Blaming others
• Anger / Outbursts
• Poor Academic Performance
• Poor choice of friends
• Sexual promiscuity
• Verbal or Physical violence
• Problems with the law
• Stealing
• Recklessness
• Laziness
• Low-self esteem
• Lying


Again the results that they are really looking for through these behaviors is: Belonging Recognition Freedom to choose Control over one's destiny Success and recognition Pain relief/comfort Adequate resources for needs and wants If you boil all these things down it really comes down to the need to LOVE and BE LOVED.

This is where we step in. We can help your child to exchange their NON-WORKING set of tools for a set of WORKING tools that will help them to achieve the results they truly want. We will assist them in creating a purpose and vision for their life. They will learn the power of accountability, responsibility, self-discipline, integrity and self-esteem!

We propose that this must be done in a structured environment. Without a controlled environment the parents attempts to intervene are often thwarted by the influence of the negative peer group/influences around them that led them to the poor choices to begin with! Our school environment is one where high-standards exist. We are the motivators and the safety net. Inappropriate attitudes and behaviors are confronted, redirected and consequented. Appropriate behaviors are recognized and rewarded.

In our programs our staff will help them learn how to hold themselves accountable to their own purpose and vision. As they go through the structure of the program they will develop positive habits. Positive habits create feelings of accomplishment, satisfaction and success, which translate into SELF ESTEEM. Once your teen has INTERNALIZED an appropriate self esteem, they will want to do the right thing for the right reason's not just because WE want them to, or YOU want them too but because they will have experienced the positive benefits for themselves!!

This objective cannot be reached in an environment where they are shamed. Change, as you probably already know, doesn't come from yelling, screaming, belittling, and breaking a teen. A change of heart and habits comes when constructive tools can taught, practiced, and internalized. We are the coaches, motivators, and safety net.

We would never promise you a 30, 60, or 90 day QUICK FIX because there is rarely such a thing! It's no different than promising quick, painless, but lasting weight-loss. There is no such thing! After many years in this arena, we know that lasting changes will come through sustained effort and persistence and in a PROVEN program!

Boot Camp, or Specialty Program you choose. Our track record speaks for itself. Come to the place with proven formula for success and help your child to truly become ALL that they can be LIFELINES for teens.
