New Lifehouse Academy is a faith-based boarding school dedicated to transforming the lives of troubled teen girls through spiritual growth, academic excellence, and character development. Their programs are designed to address the unique challenges faced by adolescents, providing a structured and supportive environment that fosters personal and spiritual transformation. As part of Teen Challenge Oklahoma, the organization provides separate facilities designed to meet the unique needs of each gender, with boys attending Brush Creek Academy for Boys. These programs incorporate daily devotionals, worship services, and spiritual mentoring to strengthen students' relationships with God. Additionally, they provide accredited educational opportunities, ensuring that students remain on track academically while addressing behavioral and emotional issues. Therapeutic activities, such as animal therapy and recreational programs, are also integral, promoting emotional resilience and personal growth. New Lifehouse Academy serves teen girls aged 14 to 17 who are struggling with issues like addiction, behavioral challenges, or other life-controlling problems. Emphasizing family restoration, the programs include family counseling and regular communication to rebuild trust and strengthen familial bonds. Set in a serene environment, the boarding school offers safe and nurturing spaces where teens can heal away from external pressures, surrounded by supportive communities and guided by Christian principles.
