Being without electronics and other conveniences gives teens an opportunity to contemplate deeper issues of life. The necessity of working together to meet simple daily needs calls for coping and teamwork strategies, pushing teens to consider their responsibility to others. As they watch staff and leaders who submit to God as the true Authority, they find a reference point for themselves and can better relate to authority and to others.

This phase gets them ready to transition into society as privileges and individual freedoms are restored. Careful training of parents in our retreats also takes place during this phase in readiness for the teen’s return 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, staffed with Georgia certified instructors. We desire students to go on to college, so we incorporate test prep for the SAT and ACT as part of our regular curriculum.
