Finding help for your troubled teen

Our goal is to provide answers to the concerns of parents with children that have lost their way and need help from boarding schools to summer camps. We have a highly professional staff dedicated to understanding the dilemma that face families with troubled teens. Many years of working in this field and thousands of hours of research looking for ways to respond to the suffering faced by families and their children. We bring first hand experience and cutting edge knowledge of this catastrophic problem of emotionally crippled children and the effect on their educated but helpless parents and families.

Educational consultants consider ALA to be an alternative to the emotional growth & therapeutic boarding school, as ALA specializes in transitioning students from adolescence into adulthood. We considered Abundant Life Academy to be a fresh educational alternative to the therapeutic boarding school, where there is a strong commitment to academic pursuits and Christ-centered (non-denominational) leadership training.

Today's young people face many challenges they never imagined by any generation before. Who is going to lead them through the darkness and into the light? We hope to provide the parents of troubled teens appropriate choices to help their troubled youth learn what real discipline is; learn to increase character through difficult trials, and gain practical leadership skills that make a difference in their everyday life.

"To be called to raise up young people for Christ, tomorrow's future leaders, is the ultimate honor. God has called us to be a living sacrifice, to lay down our lives, and to lead others to the Excellency that God has preordained before the foundation of the world..." -Craig Rogers, Executive Director and Founder of Abundant Life Academy.
