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."
The next guest interviewed was Dr. Rick Meeves. He is the new CEO of Aspiro and Outback Therapeutic Expeditions. He came on the radio show to talk about how the two programs work independently of each other.
Although both programs were designed on the model for expeditionary programs, said Rick, each had a completely different focus. Aspiro focused on providing an adventure. Outlook focused on the wilderness experience, and it was planning to have some New Age elements added to it.
Kathy Rex was the last and final guest. She has founded a school in southern Idaho, called BlueFlame Wilderness Therapy.
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.
