Basic Training is designed to provide an Impacting and Life Changing Event.

Most people who have been to a Military Boot Camp of any kind, will proclaim it was an Impacting and even a life changing event. Almost all report that the way they looked at themselves was forever different. Most seen their ability to follow directions, respect boundaries, interact with authority, and their appreciation for home and family was incomparably improved. For most, the benefits were outstanding.

Red River's Basic Training is patterned after Military Boot Camps only adjusted for Struggling Teens. It is a life changing type of event for these teens. Since Basic Training meets the students' defiance, anger, rebellion, and disrespect head on, the Impact is tremendous! Old behaviors and attitudes are immediately redirected leaving change as the students' only real option. As students start to make changes they find doing the right thing is reinforcing and beneficial. When doing the right things becomes ingrained or second nature to the student, the war is over, order is restored in their lives, and they can return home as a contributing member of the family and society.
