Property Acquired Provides New Home for ‘Family Intensives’
Trails Carolina is excited to announce the acquisition of a multi-acre property dedicated solely to family services. The new campus will provide private housing, outside community spaces, and access to local wilderness areas. This new addition allows Trails Carolina to continue to expand and develop family programming.
This facility will primarily be utilized for Trails’ post-graduation family program, Common Ground, and for individualized family intensives. Currently, Trails Carolina offers three and four-day intensives for post wilderness families and also five-day programs for non-Trails families that have yet to experience wilderness. These programs are structured and clinically supported experiences for families wanting to work on improving communication, rebuilding trust, and improving the existing family dynamic.
“From the beginning, we’ve been investing in supporting the whole family system to support long-term change. Acquiring this property is an exciting evolution in family support and programming we can offer, not only to Trails families but for other families needing these services as well,” explained Co-Executive Director Jeremy Whitworth.
The new property features a blend of modern amenities such as private single-family housing combined with wilderness features including multiple fire pits and an outdoor kitchen. This addition will expand on the compassionate programming Trails Carolina can offer families.
