Heartland Boys Academy is a structured, Christian residential program for boys aged 12-17. We are located in Western Kentucky. Our relationally-oriented but highly disciplined program is specifically designed to help boys who are struggling with difficult life challenges or expulsion from a public or private school.

Each student at Heartland has an exciting opportunity to explore the Western Kentucky wilderness and do the kinds of things that boys love. That includes hiking, hunting, fishing, exploring, camping, cave spelunking, and many other outdoor adventures. While the boys experience fun in the wilderness, our team of counselors and mentors work on their thinking and behaviors. For boys who once had no hope for their own future, this adventure-based experience shows them that life can be exciting without drugs, alcohol, electronic games, or the other negative factors and influences that were a big part of their previous life.
