alternatives!The types of
information that you will not find in our information include
(with reasons displayed to right) :
Juvenile boot
camps (These are typically government operated or chartered
boot camps and have not proven to be effective in long term
change in behavior patterns).Teen boot camps
: Private (Private youth boot camps are not very common in the
U.S. as they are also not as effective as a treatment center
or specialty boarding school.
Military
schools (Typically, the staff of military schools are not as
trained to deal with a troubled teen as a treatment center or
specialty school. In most cases, they do not have a
therapy option and little or no after-care)Wilderness
programs / Outdoor schools (These are short term options that
we feel do not equip teens with the tools for long term
change. Deaths have been occurred at numerous wilderness
programs).
One thing to keep
in mind is that you should consult a therapist about your
decision.
