I don’t know a whole lot about the program, but I do know they help troubled teens.
The program has visited my church a few times, and the teens have shared their stories about how much the program has helped them.
You should look into it.
Maybe it could help you with what you’re looking for.
Good luck.

There are many options relating to the treatment and correction for troubled teen. There are literally thousands of organizations designed to help troubled teens. Boot camps, specialty boarding schools, therapists, military schools, group homes are all established to help troubled teens. And that list is just a scratch of the surface.The most important thing that you can do as the parent, is decide which type of program, facility, or organization is best suited to deal with the issues facing your teen. Make sure you do your homework. Learn about the techniques and philosophies that these different organizations will use to help a troubled teen. Whenever possible, take the time to visit facilities and meet the staff a faculty of these organizations. Get advice from other parents who have been down the same path you are currently on.
I have found an informational blog site, relating the topics of troubled teen help, like wilderness programs, outdoor therapy etc. http://wildernessprogramsetc.com/
halfway houses as alternative to incarceration
Troubled teens don’t always need placement. I agree that Teen Challenge is a great place to send one if you need to. If you explored all other options in treating them, I would begin your research on programs.
Word of caution though, be very picky and skeptical when choosing a program or treatment. There are really bad ones out there. Have you looked into some behavior modification programs first? I’ve heard great reviews of the total transformation. You can read a review here, http://www.resourcetolife.com/the-total-transformation.
Here’s an example of a wilderness therapy program for troubled teens: http://www.odysseynw.com It’s called Odyssey Wilderness Programs and offers a combination of experiential education and wilderness therapy for struggling teens.
The National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs is also a good resource: http://www.natsap.org/
And here’s a link to the National Association of Therapeutic Wilderness Camps: http://www.natwc.org/
Besides wilderness treatment programs, individual therapy is certainly an option for teens and there are rehabilitation centers for drug and alcohol abuse or other issues.
Hope that helps
