Kansas Summer Camps
New Hope Wilderness Camp
Wilderness Adventure Program
New Hope Wilderness Camp is a Christian-based program. Our passion is to facilitate a HEART change, as anything short of that does not last. We are not a bootcamp or a bratcamp. We do not subject the kids to anything that we don't do ourselves. We have an 88% success rate, and higher when parents will take our suggestions and engage in making the necessary adjustments. Although our program is 21 days, we continue to keep in touch with the kids indefinitely (and parents as needed) to keep them accountable to the decisions they make while they are here.
We are a unique program, in that we use horses to do therapy (Equine Assisted Learning) with the young people. We also do comprehensive testing to identify the blend of each child's "temperament" enabling us to quickly identify why they do what they do and what to do about it. We are a holistic program. We educate both the child and the parent how to change these behavioral patterns. We also have counseling sessions EVERY day, along with other curriculum.
