[quote=Anonymous]So, there are programs that I consider hybrid programs. They are a bit longer than what I usually thing of as wilderness. They have a lot of outside time and work. In addition to talk therapy and medication management, they have work obligations in order to keep their lives moving. For example, in a residential treatment center, meals are made for kids, but in these programs, the kids have a significant amount of responsibility relating to meals - like maybe cooking, or deep cleaning the prep area, or whatever. In the course of doing the work to keep life moving, they learn lots of life skills like working together, managing your frustration and emotions, dealing with someone not doing their part, which in turn stops the process. Anyway, you might want to look into this as well.[/quote]
