We support open lines of communication with all involved parties so it is important to us that families registering an adolescent for a Crossings Wilderness Expedition fully understand the nature of the treatment. This information is provided to all parents, related agencies, and/or care givers via mail or fax (as requested) prior to registering an adolescent for the program. Also provided are the adolescent rights and responsibilities, program rules, and discipline. These are provided in detail and in keeping with certification requirements of the Alaska State Office of Mental Health Services.
