Adolescent Outdoor Programs at New Vision Wilderness.
The Adolescent Outdoor Programs are intensive Wilderness Therapy programs that utilizes a
combination of team-building, outdoor living, and psychotherapy coupled with extended outdoor
living, backpacking, and canoeing. NVW follows a Trauma Informed Care model.
These interventions are a great opportunity to combine the challenge of our group-oriented outdoor
adventures with the benefits of group and one-to-one therapy. Goal development and self-awareness
are covered in the context of therapy. These programs offer an opportunity for intervention and
assessment of struggling teens, as well as a positive opportunity for personal growth.
The Adolescent Outdoor Program includes two program options.
QUEST: Open enrollment program includes stays averaging 6-7 weeks
MILESTONE: Intensive 21-day Wilderness Therapy Expeditions.
Both programs include therapist contact a minimum of 4-days a week. These 2 program models offer
client treatment intervention on an as needed basis. QUEST is for youth in need of more
individualized or longer-term treatment options. QUEST allows for more immediate placement, and
includes family programming and therapy. Learn about the clinical services of the two programs here.
