Why Momentum?
Momentum was established with the mission of assisting young adults dealing with anxiety, depression, technological dependence, and various other challenges in transitioning to independence, boosting their confidence, and discovering new directions in life.
As an alternative to traditional wilderness therapy, our program offers a ‘Challenge by Choice’ model with many outdoor adventure options that allows young adults to have choice and take ownership of their successes.
Situated in the scenic mountains of western North Carolina, our 800-acre campus boasts a mountain lake and proximity to the vibrant city of Asheville. The Blue Ridge Mountains provide an abundance of opportunities for exploration through the seasons, featuring countless waterfalls and activities such as hiking, paddling, climbing, mountain biking, and more.

Our focus is empowering students to acquire new skills that will pave the way for personal success, relationships, and other facets of their lives. Throughout their journey, participants learn to actively engage with their surroundings, strengthen their sense of self, set meaningful goals, and foster independence.
The transition between our campus schedule and nature-based experiences allows students to practice real-life change in a supportive environment. This distinctive approach makes Momentum a one-of-a-kind young adult adventure and outdoor therapy program on the East Coast.
