Carolina Waterfall
Welcome to Teen Discovery in Costa Rica!
Teen Discovery Southwest is a short Term (typically 8 weeks) wake-up and refocus program for Teens who need a Alternative for the summer or a simple reality check and wake-up call that the path they are pursuing is not acceptable. Teen Discovery is just the Direction your child might need. This Program is typically a Summer vacation Option but also can be used year round at anytime.. This process works well for the Adolescent who is struggling in his home school or the community, as well as the child who might not have yet taken the plunge off the edge; but with Failing grades in school and a need to get caught up with the rest of their class, to basic disrespect to parents, and even in some cases evidences of possible drug use. Ether way the signs are clearly there of where this student is going and will end up in if a option such as this isn't exercised.

South West Center

Teen Discovery Soutwest is also the home of South West Center. See http://www.southwestcenter.net/location.amp. The students attend South West Center campus (SWC) as they attend Teen Discovery and the fact they are in another place other than home and unfamiliar surrounding immediately starts the process of positive change. Finding themselves in entirely new surroundings, teens tend to be much more teachable and open to new directions. Experience has shown that an unfamiliar experience not only facilitates change and perspective, but at SWC also creates the kinds of memories that they are likely to appreciate the rest of their lives.

South West Center is a powerfully impacting, Therapeutic Residential Treatment Center. Our purpose is to create positive change, to restore respect and instill the values needed to create a new start in the lives of our students. Our methods integrate values, workshops, personal and group sessions, along with educational and sports activities that change their habits and make a positive impact in their lifes. Our beautiful campus helps provide an atmosphere of security, order and comfort and sincere hospitality, far away from the negative influences of former peers and negative social structures.
