Intercept Program for At-Risk Youth and Troubled Teens
Today is the day. To make positive choices. To embrace my potential. To realize I can change my path.
You find yourself trying to look at the world through your teen's eyes. You see a rocky and unsettling road from adolescence to adulthood, filled with potholes, perils and teen-age pitfalls. You want to lend a hand. We can help.
Outward Bound offers Intercept wilderness expeditions year-round for teens and young adults beginning to demonstrate destructive behaviors. Intercept expeditions are designed to help students and parents discover the basis of hope for a happier and more productive future--recognizing strengths, good intent, understanding and potential. The challenging expedition "airlifts" your teen out of what may be unhealthy routines or negative environments into awe-inspiring surroundings where he or she can gain a fresh perspective on life. You'll join us for the last three days of the program, in a pivotal and productive workshop with instructors and your child.
