[QUOTE="neednewtechnique, post: 48210, member: 3527"] I don't have experience with any BOOT CAMPS, but that was one of the alternatives suggested to us by our difficult child's therapist. Together as a team, we have opted NOT to use a "BOOT CAMP" or "WILDERNESS CAMP" program just yet, we are going to try the "Equestrian Therapy" route first, and send our difficult child to a "horse camp/ranch" and see how she does there. I have heard that these horse ranches are just as effective and much less threatening to the adolescents. I don't know what there is along these lines available on the east coast, our difficult child is going to attend one here in Illinois, but there is a website from one of these ranches in Utah that has a LOT of helpful information about how these camps are structured and how they help. It is the Turnabout Ranch. This is NOT the one our difficult child will be going to, but as I said, they do have some great information about how these sorts of camps work. I have promised several parents on this site that I would update everyone on this process and how the program works for us, so there will be more information to follow soon, once we get things set up and I get a bit more information from the camp coordinator.
