Clearfork Academy

Call Us 618-9270 Clearfork Academy is a Christ-centered residential treatment center for adolescent boys between the ages of 13 and 17 years old who struggle with substance abuse or addiction and the accompanying mental health and behavioral issues. Clearfork is a family-style living environment set on a ranch overlooking Eagle Mountain Lake. Residents learn, exercise, eat, play, and pray together with the goal of helping each other beat their addictions. WHY WE DO WHAT WE DO We believe in the potential of teenagers and the power of Christ to change the trajectory of their lives. Teen drug rehab is more than a job to us; it’s a calling. These factors are what make Clearfork Academy distinct from other addiction recovery facilities. Why Christ-centered? Addiction is a powerful thing. Substance abuse rehabilitation requires more than behavioral modification; it requires a heart change. Jesus is the one best qualified to change hearts, so He’s central to all we do at Clearfork. Why adolescents? The habits we develop as teens set the trajectory for the rest of our lives. We treat adolescents because we believe in a better future for them. By addressing faulty thinking now, we can literally change their minds before their brains are fully developed. If they’re impressionable enough to fall into addiction, they’re impressionable enough to recover. Helping them reach sobriety now gives them a better chance of a healthy, productive life as an adult. The difference between a calling and a job A job pays the bills; a calling is a life’s purpose. Helping adolescents overcome substance abuse is a calling for us. We love what we do and the teens with whom we work. We celebrate their victories and grieve their setbacks.
