Abstract

Wilderness programs offer a nontraditional treatment option for adolescents with a variety of problems. Unfortunately, many of these programs appear to be directed at White adolescents from high-income families. This article presents a wilderness intervention that could be appropriate for Latino adolescents from lower- and middle-income families. This wilderness intervention is based on an evidence-based search and literature review as outlined by Leonard Gibbs (2003). This article illustrates Gibbs’s techniques for researching and identifying evidence-based practice methods and outlines a possible wilderness therapy intervention for gang-involved Latino adolescents.
