Interviewing Founders of the Top 3 Parent Choice Programs
Ken Huey was the first guest. He founded the Change Academy Lake of the Ozarks, often simply referred to as CALO, and serves as it current senior vice president.
CALO--who specialize in working with adopted children who have serious attachment disorders and reactive attachment disorders. They recently opened up two new houses on five acres of adjoining property. Preteens are children between the ages of ten to thirteen years of age. Those with reactive attachment disorder are intense. Although, they are not violent, they require a large staff to regulate their behavior. "These children, "said Ken, "need one on one care. They crave touch, love and care. They like to rock in the dual rocking chairs and to sit and talk and to learn to connect and trust."
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.
He explained that both programs did have something in common: they both used the expeditionary model. However, the emphasis placed on each one was slightly different. Aspiro was an adventure program. Outback was a wilderness program, with some "New Age" features.
The final guest was Kathy Rex. She is the founder of a new wilderness program called BlueFire Wilderness Therapy. The school is located in southern Idaho.
The new program is for children who are between thirteen and seventeen years old. The program is gender specific and students can choose between an adventure or a wilderness experience. They are housed in yurts, where they learn arts and crafts.
