Short-term programs that have a high impact on behavior can help a teen get back on track. Therapeutic wilderness programs generally last between 30 and 60 days. These programs incorporate traditional therapeutic modalities into a wilderness adventure experience. Students camp in the mountains, desert, or other natural area, learn to make their food, gather water, and build fire without matches. The environment natural requires cooperation among participants, which helps to build positive peer relationships.
