Many parent do not realize that most of the mainstream programs for troubled teens are owned and operated by Mormons and impart their religous ideals. Many others employ a new age spirituality in their programs. If you are concerned about your troubled teen not getting more confused and buying into the philosophy of moral relativism then you need to know which programs are authenticaly Christian and more importantly Catholic!
We have done our research and come up with a screening process and criteria to ensure correct information about which troubled teen programs are Catholic/Christian in their philosophy and in their approach to helping struggling teens get on the right path and reset their moral compass.

The Second Program We found that met our criteria is Beartooth Mt Ascent. The are a Catholic program for young men ages 18-26.
Beartooth Mountain Ascent is operated by a Catholic family that
stresses the importance of practicing the Christian virtues within every
facet of social life. Many young men who have attended their program had
preconceived notions of religious devotion prior to their arrival,
often associating spirituality with hypocrisy. The incorporation of
prayer and weekly mass into their curriculum will make the young man aware
that the church pews in Clark, Wyoming are filled with the rugged
cowboys he works with side by side, each day, in the corrals.They State "We
believe that the recovery process begins when the young man surrenders
to his “higher-power” and starts to engage with role models that
demonstrate the admirable characteristics of honesty and moral
integrity."
