60-Year History of Healing and Hope for Hundreds of Boys

As the very first residential Teen Challenge program for boys, Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch has been helping families for several decades. We believe that a relationship with Christ is the primary avenue for a lasting difference in the lives of the young men we serve. Every main element of our program is biblically based.We have seen thousands of times over that our faith-based approach is why so many young men have found success here, even where other programs have failed.

A number of factors distinguish Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch from other therapeutic boarding schools: 

• MORE STAFF — First, we keep student-to-staff ratios low to ensure boys have plenty of supervision and one-on-one attention. Our staff are highly trained and most have bachelor or master’s degrees in their area of work.

• ADVENTURE-BASED LEARNING — Our outdoor adventure program is second to none. Our students have regular opportunities to experience fun and challenging outdoor activities. Students enjoy camping, backpacking, rappelling, canoeing, and spelunking (cave exploration). Students are challenged physically and learn the importance of goals and perseverance.

• MORE PRIVACY FOR EACH BOY — Rather than housing all the boys in a large dorm filled with bunk beds, our students can spend nights in their own bedrooms, separate from the noise and influence of the other boys.

• MORE FAMILY VISITS — Residents are allowed to visit family on regularly scheduled breaks.

• MORE ADDICTION TREATMENT — Our program is a licensed dual-diagnosis Addiction Treatment Center with staff expertly trained to treat substance abuse, as well as harmful lifestyle addictions to gambling, pornography, or online gaming.

• EXTENSIVE AFTERCARE PROGRAM — After successfully finishing Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch, boys return home with a strong aftercare program to prevent relapse. Aftercare is included in our tuition package.
