2024 GARDEN GRANT RECIPIENT

August 9, 2024

Whole Kids recently awarded Summit with a grant out of over 1,200 other applicants! Summit plans to utilize the award towards a greenhouse, garden shed, and wheelbarrow, enabling our Clean Team to garden year-round. We couldn’t be more grateful to have the opportunity to extend the growing season for our students.

Recently, AA and NA began facilitating group sessions on campus for students in the rehabilitation process. These facilitators, along with our counseling team, have introduced the process of AA and NA to our young men while sharing their recovery stories and answering questions.

NICOTINE CESSATION PROGRAM CONTINUES

June 17, 2024

Our young men are almost at the end of their 10-week seminar on Tobacco Cessation. This has been an incredibly positive and educational experience for them. Their interaction and investment in each session have been phenomenal, and their interest in living tobacco-free has truly impressed the program facilitators.

Thank you to the team from Keystone Wellness for sharing this amazing program with us!

CLEAN TEAM IS HARD AT WORK

June 11, 2024

Students rolled up their sleeves, threw on some gloves, and went to work laying out weed barriers and planting on the grounds at Summit Academy. For some, this is their very first experience with gardening! Special thanks to KidsGardening.org and Garden Tower Project for helping us grow new opportunities for our students. 🌱

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY
