Opportunity Knocks for Three Youth in need of Residential Treatment

By the end of June, three more teenage boys who arrived at Wendigo Lake as a result of their lives being out of control – driven by rebellion and hopelessness, rejecting adult guidance and abandoning school in favour of anti-social peers and substance abuse – will be going home to their families. These youth have grown into much more stable and mature young men during six to nine months of participation in Wendigo Lake’s residential adventure therapy program.

 

Late June is an ideal time for three new youth to begin their journey to wellness. The summer is a time of adventurous wilderness canoeing expeditions and pleasant days at the Wendigo Lake campus enjoying the waterfront, adventure activities and some classroom time. Students are all the while engaged in therapeutic programming supported by Masters-level therapists and well-trained staff, designed to develop the skills, hope and resilience required to return to their home communities better equipped to realize hopes they had previously not dared to hold.
