Healing and Hope for Thousands of Boys Over the Past Five Decades
As the first residential Teen Challenge program for boys, Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch has been serving families for more than five decades.

We feel that centering our program on faith in Christ is the reason numerous teenagers find lifelong success here, even where other programs have failed.
Several factors show the difference between Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch and other therapeutic ranches:

MORE STAFF — First, we have an impressive number of expert staff, to give the boys abundance of supervision and personal 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.
-
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.
-
FAMILY VISITS — Residents are allowed to make visits to home on seasonally scheduled breaks.
-
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 graduation from Teen Challenge Adventure Ranch, boys return home accompanied by a strong aftercare program to continue the forward momentum. Aftercare is included in our tuition package.
