A Review Of November Parent Choice Programs
by Saleem Rana
Lon Woodbury and Mary Romero, hosts of The Woodbury Report radio show on K4HD.com, spoke to three guests on the theme of the top news from parent choice programs across the country. The guests interviewed were Ken Huey, Founder and Senior VP of CALO; Dr. Rick Meeves, CEO of Aspiro/Outback Therapeutic Expeditions; and Kathy Rex, Founder of BlueFire Wilderness Therapy.
The show is hosted by Lon Woodbury, the founder of Struggling Teens and Woodbury Reports. As an Independent Educational Consultant, Lon has been helping troubled adolescents since 1984. Lon is a prolific author and has written a wide number of books on parenting.
A consumer advocate, an active life coach in her own business called Live-Coaching, and a writer, Mary wears many hats. Her latest book is called, "The Breakdown of an All-American Family." Mary has not only authored a number of books, but she has also written for a large number of websites in the parenting niche.
Top 3 Parent Choice Interviews
The first guest in the interview series on the Top 3 Parent Choice Programs selected by Woodbury Reports was Ken Huey, who is the Founder and Senior VP of Change Academy Lake of the Ozarks (CALO). He spoke about the new renovations at CALO.
Preteens are intense, especially those with reactive attachment disorders. CALO, which previously only worked with teens, has now opened up two new houses, located on five acres of an adjoining property to the school, to hep preteens. Aged from ten to thirteen, these young people require a lot of love and attention, which means a large staff who can give them personal attention. They crave love and care. They need to talk to build up trust and feel connected to the world around them.
Dr. Rick Meeves, the new CEO of Aspiro and Outback Therapeutic Expeditions, was the next guest. He discussed how the two programs would remain autonomous.
Although both programs were designed on the model for expeditionary programs, said Rick, each had a completely different focus. Aspiro focused on providing an adventure. Outlook focused on the wilderness experience, and it was planning to have some New Age elements added to it.
The founder of BlueFlame Wilderness Therapy, a school in southern Idaho that follows the wilderness recovery model, Kathy Rex was the third and last guest, and she was invited to share on her new school.
Students between the age of 13 to 17 years could choose from a variety of outdoor adventures or wilderness experiences. The program was focused on a single gender group at a time--it was not coed. Students lived in a yurt for three days and learned arts and crafts.
Lon Woodbury, the founder of <a href="http://www.strugglingteens.com">Struggling Teens</a>, has recorded the entire interview on his weekly <a href="http://www.strugglingteens.com/artman/publish/WRI-K4HD_141202_.shtml">L.A. Talk Radio</a> show for people to at their convenience.
