Why Wilderness? the benefits of wilderness therapy

Clinical Excellence the highest level of care for your child

“The wilderness therapy offered at SUWS was the dynamic solution needed to help my son with his behavioral issues. When my son left SUWS, he was completely changed for the better and also created new bonds and unforgettable memories! I can't recommend SUWS enough for anyone in a similar situation!”
