Oxbow Academy provides very specialized treatment. We are often the last hope to families in crisis who don't know where to turn. As a youth mentor on the Oxbow team, you will provide a safe and supervised environment where our families' sons can begin the healing process.

Students at Oxbow Academy have broken sexual boundaries. These issues are often misunderstood and result in debilitating anxiety and shame. Our goal is to provide hope where it has been lost, rebuild trust where it has been broken, and help these young men and their families move forward.

As a mentor at Oxbow Academy, you provide hope to families. Their sons are finally safe. Healing can finally begin. You will gain experience in the behavioral and mental health fields and working with adolescents. You will share experiences with our students including high adventure activities that help build authentic, healthy relationships. These relationships are central to the healing process. Often the relationships formed with mentors are the most meaningful to our students and central to deep and lasting change. They create the safety needed to take the first step forward.

Serve families. Help heal. Be a Youth Mentor.
