Transformative Alternative to Juvenile Incarceration

Camp Resistance, Escape, Evasion, and Survival (Camp REES), located in southern California, is a one-of-a-kind alternative to juvenile incarceration. Our mission is to help troubled youth aged 16-21 steer clear of the justice system by providing a comprehensive, twelve-month live-in program that builds character, self-discipline, and life skills. We offer participants personalized support, drawing from the experience of our staff who have overcome similar challenges, ensuring each youth is prepared to re-enter society successfully.

At Camp REES, we work closely with each participant, offering services such as a basic high school education, anger management, addiction resistance, and life skills courses, all designed to break the cycle of recidivism. Our program ensures that every participant gains the confidence and knowledge necessary to contribute positively to society and avoid falling back into the system. By focusing on personal growth and offering small, manageable cohorts, we aim to provide an environment that fosters transformation.
