What We Do
Young adults in the present day are grappling with a widespread issue of loneliness, social isolation, and disconnection. Mental health disorders in the United States are intricate, and conventional clinical therapy and medication don’t always yield positive results.
Long term therapeutic communities and adventure based therapy are uniquely positioned to tackle the challenges of social isolation, addiction, and mental health disorders among young adults.
These programs blend outdoor activities, therapeutic interventions led by licensed mental health professionals, and collaborative group experiences. Together, these elements assist participants in overcoming personal struggles and fostering meaningful connections with themselves, their peers, and the natural world.
These programs offer participants a range of physically challenging yet safe activities that promote teamwork and cooperation. They teach the importance of mutual support, nurture emotional resilience, enhance the ability to adapt and thrive amidst adversity, and empower young individuals to navigate social interactions with increased confidence and emotional intelligence.
However, these treatments come at a significant cost, are seldom covered by health insurance, and are financially out of reach for many families. The One Life Fund steps in to provide financial assistance to these families, bridging the financial gap and expanding access to those in need.
