New Dominion, has two separate year-round outdoor therapeutic programs, one serving boys and one serving girls.
This program offers a unique combination of group therapy and treatment techniques along with experiential adventure-based outdoor services and activities.
The programs are designed to help adolescents who are experiencing learning, emotional, and/or behavioral difficulties in the more traditional academic settings and at home.
Both of our programs are accredited by the Southern Association of Colleges and Schools (SACS), the Virginia Association of Independent Specialized Education Facilities (VAISEF), and the National Association of Therapeutic Wilderness Camps (NATWC).
