The youth of today face a number of challenges when it comes to navigating their way through a complicated world. This can result in a number of issues which most parents simply aren't equipped to handle. But what options are there when a child is headed towards disaster but isn't quite there yet?
Blue Ridge Schools provides a unique alternative to military schools and detention centers. BRS serves up to 24 male and 24 female students, aged 14 to 21, from all across the country. While most students have been sent here by the juvenile courts system, some have been referred by their local school officials or enrolled per their parents' request.
In addition to the student program, thanks to a recent grant from the Department of Justice, Blue Ridge Schools is now offering an Adult Program as well. This program allows for up to eighteen adults to live and work on the Blue Ridge Schools campus as an alternative to serving jail time. These offenders are given the opportunity to earn their GED, receive counseling, and earn money that they can use to get back on their feet once released from the program.It is thought that having these adults on campus will prove a positive influence on the students by deterring them away from a life of crime.
Nestled in the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains, BRS provides its students and adult residents with a unique learning and living environment geared towards helping develop the skills needed to become a productive member of society. AT BRS, learning and healing go hand in hand.
