Crisis Intervention
Richard Armstrong, Founder
Moyie Springs, Idaho
208-265-4888
Boundarylines, Inc. is
now offering an Interim Care Service and a Vocational Apprenticeship
Program as of June of 1993. This is building on the Transport
and Intervention Service of the last three years.
The Interim Care Service is based
out of a two story ranch house on 25 acres on the Moyie
River. It is located 140 miles northeast of Spokane,
Washington and is from 1 to 100 days, or more when appropriate.
Five full and part time professional
counselors with over 60 years combined experience in working
with at risk teenagers are ready to assist students in learning
to make healthier decisions.
Vocational programs offered are
for young men 17 and older providing on-the-job training.
These are designed to enhance the individual's learning ability
and increase life skills. The duration of the workshops are
8-10 weeks, with the opportunity for students to stay longer
if steady progress is demonstrated. Basic carpentry skills,
good work ethic, educational growth and having fun are all
encompassed within their full-time job.
Students will be held to a strong
work ethic and day to day responsibilities. They will learn
applied math, science and communication skills, be paid minimum
wage, and be housed in residential facilities. The students
will be responsible for cooking, cleaning, personal hygiene
and other daily chores.
