CCS offers an incredibly unique method of outdoor therapy for clients through the Adventure Youth Program. Created in 1998, the program offers kids an experiential break through trips to the base camp, located in north Georgia, as well as visits to parks throughout the state and the entire southeast. Trips include between 12 and 20 children during both weekend and week- long excursions. It allows the kids to belong, improve life skills and resolve issues in a non-threatening manner. But most importantly the Adventure Youth Program is fun! The children participate in a variety of activities including kayaking, canoeing, hiking, bicycling, candle making, soap making and more.

Also, our camp staff members receive specialized training in order to work with our children in this outdoor setting. Many have backgrounds in fields such as education, first aid, outdoor leadership training, orienteering and rock climbing to name a few. Trip Leaders are certified Wilderness First Responders and have completed courses through the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS).
