A Hybrid Between a Wilderness Program and a Boarding School, with a Christian Emphasis

Shepherd’s Hill Academy, located in northeast Georgia about 2 hours from Atlanta, combines the best aspects of a therapeutic wilderness program and a Christian boarding school with several forms of therapy, including counseling and equine therapy. Teens arrive at Shepherd’s Hill Academy from the east coast, south, midwest, western states and west coast, including from towns like Middle River.

The Wilderness Program is the First Phase

The first phase of a stay at Shepherd’s Hill Academy is a wilderness program, carefully planned to eliminate distractions, build trust and teach teamwork. Being without electricity and other conveniences gives teens an opportunity to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of cooperating to meet simple daily needs involves coping and teamwork strategies, giving teens good reason to consider their obligation to others.

The Residential Program is Next

Once the teens in our care consistently make responsible choices and take ownership of their growth, they transition to the residential program and live in a home on campus. This phase gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and personal liberties are restored.
