Just a few hundred miles from the Southeast tip of the United States
is the friendly Caribbean island of Jamaica. Thousands of U.S. citizens
visit Jamaica each week to enjoy the sunny beaches, the beautiful scenery,
the congenial hospitality, and the relaxed tranquility of this tropical
island.
In addition to Academic Curriculum,
students are also taught values, integrity,
honor, accountability, and respect for authority.
Jamaica is an excellent location for the Program because it offers the
benefits of a foreign site yet is still close to the United States with
easy access for any needed U.S. services or technology. At Tranquility
Bay, students are enriched and effectively impacted by a unique cultural
experience in Jamaica’s warm yet humble and modest surroundings.
The benefits of a foreign site are numerous. First, the students are put
into an entirely new environment, far away from the negative friends and
influences that have adversely affected their lives. Second, a new culture
results in the teens being more teachable and open to change and direction.
As a result, the teens tend to be much more teachable and open to change
and direction. Third, a foreign experience helps broaden the teen’s
insight, awareness and perspective. Fourth, a foreign setting is much
more impacting and instills a greater appreciation for home and family.
Fifth, not only do the teens get the help they need, but a valuable overseas
experience that they will likely remember and appreciate the rest of their
lives.Additionally, due to the greater value of the U.S. dollar in Jamaica,
the Program can provide its services at a significant reduction of cost
to families. All of these reasons make Jamaica an excellent option for
teens needing to make changes in their lives.
Tranquility Bay provides a warranty
and all of the services and components
required to be recommended by Teens In Crisis.
