Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch offers a holistic and Christ-centered residential program for boys aged 14-17, designed to address a wide range of challenges. Combining trauma-informed care, professional therapy, academic support, and outdoor adventure, the program focuses on helping at-risk boys overcome issues such as trauma, adoption-related struggles, negative peer influences, physical abuse, and addictions to substances, gaming, or pornography. With a commitment to mental wellness, behavioral growth, and academic success, the program prepares young men for a positive and hopeful future.
At Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch, family is central to the healing journey. Every 8 weeks, Family Reconnect Day combines meaningful visitation with intensive therapy, while weekly virtual check-ins keep everyone aligned and engaged. With 24/7 mentorship from a dedicated team and personalized care, each teen receives up to five individual therapy sessions weekly, plus group and addiction recovery services. Flexible stays, from 90 days to 9-10 months, ensure support is tailored to every boy’s unique needs, fostering lasting transformation.
A structured weekday schedule balances academics, therapy, and physical activities. Mornings begin with breakfast, devotions, and classes, followed by group sessions, life skills training, and evening chapel services. Weekends offer more relaxed recreation, church outings, and downtime. Adventure therapy activities, including hiking, rappelling, canoeing, and equine therapy, encourage active engagement and personal growth.
