Removing technology and other conveniences gives teens an opportunity to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of cooperating to meet simple daily needs calls for coping and teamwork abilities, giving teens good reason to consider their obligation to others. As they observe staff and leaders who submit to God as the ultimate Authority, they learn a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

This phase prepares them to transition into society as privileges and personal freedoms are restored. Careful instruction of parents in our retreats also takes place during this step in preparation for the teen’s going home.

During both phases of the program, the teens receive regular counseling and are enrolled in our on-campus, fully accredited junior and senior high school, taught by Georgia certified teachers. We desire students to go on to college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
