Rhode Island Troubled Teens in CrisisRhode Island teens in crisis today are having a difficult time staying out of trouble, and who can blame them? Drugs and alcohol are widespread and easy to obtain, the media reflects our rapidly degenerating society, and the vast majority of teens have tried or will try drugs at one point in their lives. There is a crisis among teens today that needs to be addressed. If you need help with a teen in crisis, please give us a call at 888-305-6729, our counselors at Abundant Life Academy can help. Why do RI teens in crisis engage in behavior that is so obviously self-destructive? One of the reasons is that they think whatever they are doing will make them happy. They have been taught to think that partying and drinking will bring them satisfaction and happiness but often they cannot be further from the truth. When it gets to the point that troubled teens no longer respect parental authority and is starting to affect their family, intervention may be the only option left. Abundant Life Academy is a Christian boarding school and our mission is to restore troubled boys and girls to their families. We have professional, licensed therapists who have sessions with troubled teens and get to the root of the problem. For more information, please call Abundant Life Academy at 888-305-6729 to speak to one of our counselors.
