1. Turning Winds Academic Institute (TWAI)
Courses / Programs
Serving troubled teen boys and girls ages 13-18 from North Dakota and across the U.S, Turning Winds Academic Institute (TWAI) is a family-run, therapeutic boarding school.

Located on a peaceful and safe 150 acre campus in northwestern Montana, TWAI combines the benefits of a therapeutic boarding school, a wilderness program, and a residential treatment center (RTC).

We have been providing an extremely high standard of care to our students and their families since 2002, with an exceptional degree of success.

We offer help for the following issues: behavioral problems, poor academic performance, low self-worth, addictions, spectrum disorders, ADD/ADHD, and attachment disorders among others.  

With a passion for helping young people in crisis, our clinical, educational, and operations staff are among the best in the country.

With a student to staff ration of 5:1, we are a small program (40 students) which allows us to provide a truly unique and customized approach for each student.

TWAI requires a commitment of 3 months. However, best results for lasting success are realized through 6+ months of treatment. The average stay at our residential treatment center is 12 months.

We accept insurance which ultimately allows parents the affordability of treatment.
