Company Description

Located in the beautiful Pisgah National Forest in Western North Carolina. We are a wilderness therapy program that provides an intervention and treatment program for young people displaying self-defeating behaviors and destructive decision-making patterns. SUWS seeks to identify the positive attributes these students alredy posses, which will help them to overcome their unhealthy patterns. Field instructors are part of a treatment team, working shifts in the backcountry that are 8 days on and 6 days off. Under the direction of the therapist, instructors carry out specific therapeutic outcomes for all students and devise strategies for reaching the intended outcomes in the field. Instructors provide the highest level of safety for students and help them adhere to those high standards while in the backcountry. Pre-requisites are as follows. Must be 21 or older. Current adult and child CPR and Basic First-Aid/Wilderness First Responder preferred. Must pass background check/drug screening
