hollistic approach

At Catalyst, we believe that boys are most likely to find health and happiness when they achieve balance in six Core Elements of life: family, heart, soul, mind, body, and friends. Our program is comprehensively designed to help boys and their families gain balance and well-being in these elements.

Catalyst is a relationship-based program where fostering positive relationships is our ultimate goal. We view behavior as an outward expression of inward thoughts and feelings. While addressing the outward behavior is important, we strive to foster growth from the inside-out to encourage real and lasting change. Our program is specifically designed to facilitate change through the positive relationships your son will forge with staff and other students, as well as improved relations with family.

We use a caring, professional, and understanding staff, and invite total accountability from students, staff, and owners.Your son will also learn and demonstrate leadership skills which will aid in his recovery from substance abuse and emotional isolation. Leadership skills also increase self-esteem and confidence, thus enabling your son to better withstand the pressures and stress of adolescent life.
