Kentucky Troubled Teens in Crisis

There is a growing trend today of teens in crisis who are getting caught up in negative and self-destructive behavior in greater numbers than ever before. There are a number of factors that can be attributed to this rise. One of them is the increasing prevalence and widespread use of drugs and alcohol among young people. If your teen is experimenting with drugs and alcohol and you need help, please call 888-305-6729 to speak to one of our counselors.

If your troubled boy or girl in crisis is experimenting with drugs and alcohol, getting involved in gangs, or running away from home he or she is exhibiting “out of control” behaviors. An “out of control” teen only thinks for themselves and can be very damaging to a household. They no longer respect parental authority and only want to do things that they feel will make them happy even though they are hurting the people who really care about them. When a troubled teen is “out of control”, the only option left may be intervention. Abundant Life Academy is a Christian boarding school located in Southern Utah. Our mission is to help troubled teens work through their problems and to teach them the necessary skills they need to be successful when they return home. If you would like to find out more, please call 888-305-6729.
