In addition to individual, group, and equine therapy sessions, each activity boys participate in is designed to help them recognize their own poor behavior patterns, learn new behavior and communication skills, gain self-esteem, and experience success.

Counselors are trained to help boys progress therapuetically through campouts, games, recreational activities, work, and even school. Therapy is such an integrated part of the program, that most boys may just think that they are having fun, and may not realize how these activities are helping them grow.

Creating multiple opportunities for therapeutic growth is perfect for this age group, especially if they are resistant to change. A number of different activities adds up to a number of different ways each boy can be reached.
