ABOUT
We offer solutions when all hope seems lost
For over ten years, Rock Solid Refuge has been the program of choice by families as a faith-based solution for 13 - 18 year old boys with addictions, behaviour, or substance abuse issues. Located near Shaunavon, Saskatchewan, Rock Solid Refuge was founded as a non-profit charity in 2005.
We work with parents, guardians, grandparents, lawyers, and youth workers to help teen boys overcome pornography, drug and alcohol abuse, and anger relate issues. Using a Christian world-view, we can effectively help teens find the freedom only God can bring, giving them back their lives.
Our program challenges teens to take responsibility for their recovery. As they mature in all areas of their lives, they are enabled to confront life's challenges with confidence. Together we can help them beat their life-controlling issues.
Program Overview
School Program
Our goal at Rock Solid Refuge, is to equip each student with the tools he needs to reach his full potential in all aspects of development.
The Level System
The Level System represents the amount of trust and responsibility given to students at Rock Solid Refuge
Activities
Students are challenged in relationships as they interact daily with staff and their peers. Activities are a key part of the Rock Solid Refuge program.
What we do
We focus on Faith & Discipleship, Mentorship, Education, and Life Skills.
We incorporate spiritual lessons into daily activities and discussions, teaching students to make positive choices and equipping them for life after graduation from Rock Solid Refuge. Each student is assigned a staff mentor who meets with him regularly to encourage and advise him, building a relationship through activities, devotions, and conversations.
Rock Solid Refuge offers a classroom setting for online courses through NorthStar Academy or Sun West Distance Learning Centre. Schooling has been a casualty of many of our students’ lifestyles. Our goal is to re-engage them, repair education gaps, and help them achieve their academic potential through ongoing assessment, one-on-one tutoring, and classroom activities.
