NATWC TODAY
Currently, The National Association of Therapeutic Wilderness Camps (NATWC) represents over 50 therapeutic wilderness programs for young people across the country. We are committed to upholding the best practices of our industry through networking, education, counselor certification, and the support of research and political action in our field. We serve as an unbiased reference for parents and professionals searching for appropriate programs. We publish the Journal of Therapeutic Wilderness Camping, documenting and sharing cutting-edge research and advancements within our field. And we promote quality care of youth through providing training opportunities for all levels of therapeutic wilderness professionals, including our annual conference. We are also co-sponsors of the Council on Accreditation (COA). NATWC's business and activities are overseen by a volunteer board of program directors and others directly involved in this field, from across the country.

OUR MISSION STATEMENT
The primary purpose of NATWC is to support the establishment and continuation of therapeutic wilderness camping organizations; with the attendant responsibility to educate the public as to the existence of such organizations and their success in helping troubled young people change their lives for the better.
