Teen Boys & Girls School
The Julian Youth Academy is a fully accredited, private Christian residential boarding school located in Northern California. A program of Teen Rescue, this residential boarding school for teenagers is aimed at helping troubled teen girls and troubled teen boys by providing firm but loving intervention, interactive education, and life skills training. Our boarding school is open to families regardless of race or religion.
If you are unsure what to do with your out-of-control teen, you have come to the right place. Most of the parents that turn to us are exhausted both emotionally and financially, having spent years and thousands of dollars on other solutions or programs for troubled teens. Parents desperate, and with great love for their child, continue to search for answers. The Julian Youth Academy was created to help families like yours. Our Christian boarding school can help bring strength, healing and structure to your child’s life, and bring peace back to the family unit.
There Is Hope!
Many parents are exhausted both emotionally and financially, having spent years and thousands of dollars on unproductive avenues of help. One of Teen Rescue’s goals is to help every family that calls. If we can’t help you directly we will give you options of where to turn next. We know how frustrating it is to be left with nowhere to go. It is our promise to you that we will help you move in the right direction.
A Quick Survey to See If a Problem Exists…
• Is your child rebelling against your authority?
• Is your child doing poorly in school?
• Do you fear drug or alcohol use?
• Do you fear they are sexually active? Note: As reported on CBS News on 8/10/04, 50% of parents felt their teens were not sexually active. However, research has shown that 80% of teens over the age of 14 have had sex.
• Are they living a secret life?
• Are their friends healthy in your opinion?
• Have they withdrawn from healthy activities such as sports, music, and extracurricular activities at school?
• What kind of music do they listen to? Does the music influence them with death and fantasies of suicide?
• Have they radically changed their appearance either physically or cosmetically?
• Are they sleeping excessively or showing other signs of depression?
• Are their eating habits normal and healthy?
• Have their sleep patterns changed?
• Do they show signs of anxiety?
• Are they obsessive about anything? Example: girls, boys, computers, games, friends
• Do they obey the law and/or rules at home?
• Are they generally angry or hostile towards authority?
