Treasure Coast Boys Academy serves 50 boys ages 13 to 18 at our residential boarding school located on 30 acres surrounded by ranch and orchard country. During the program, we focus on character, integrity, hard work, and respect. We cultivate an environment of positive peer pressure. We give boys responsibility for work projects and chapel services on campus to keep them involved in what is their home away from home. We want to see residents mature in their faith in Christ, and we offer worship, chapel services, bible studies, discipleship, retreats and mission trip opportunities to support that growth. Residents also stretch and support each other in their faith. Would any of that happen in a military school or boot camp? That’s unlikely.

At Treasure Coast Boys Academy, we keep boys physically active and challenged. Our recreational and sports facilities include a well-equipped gym and a professional array of weight machines, soccer field, baseball diamond, basketball court, pool, game room, fishing ponds, and horses. We often go fishing on the Florida waterways and out in the ocean. The culmination of the program is a breathtaking wilderness experience in the mountains of North Carolina during the last month of the boys’ residency. Whitewater rafting, hiking, camping, and other adventures prove that life can be at the same time adventuresome and constructive.

While we conduct individual, group, and family counseling in traditional settings, we find that most life-changing experiences tend to happen during outdoor activities and during ordinary situations. Counseling takes place frequently during the day, in all settings, through conversations with mentors during work or recreation. We put a strong emphasis on mentorship, providing the boys with positive male role models during their time with us.

Our on-campus academy operates year-round to give boys the chance to catch up on missed credits. We have on-campus teachers who facilitate the boy’s education and tutor individual boys. Boys from Rogersville, Alabama quickly catch up on missed coursework or work ahead.

Through biblical discipleship, engaging chapel services, the daily discipline of chores, and regular attendance in our private school, Treasure Coast Boys Academy gives a once troubled  teenage boy a second chance at a successful future.  Again, unlike military schools and boot camps, our emphasis and main tool is a change of heart, not fear or breaking of the spirit.
