Parents of Students Who Attended NATSAP Wilderness Programs: 

"[This Wilderness program] was a lifesaver for my son. The staff was kind, empathetic, pushing him to address his feelings and learn coping skills. Our family needed support during this difficult time. I found the communication and transparency of [the program] refreshing. I sincerely believe my son is in a far better place now due to the dedicated staff and excellent program that is [this wilderness program]."

Our son had an amazing and deeply important experience in this program. It was challenging in all the right ways, and the therapists, guides, and administrative staff were extraordinary, caring, and experienced. As a parent, I feel changed too: less reactive and enabling, with a real sense of optimism for his future — and gratitude for the new self- respect and self-appreciation that he found in the woods of Vermont.
