Know what you're getting into - Recensione dipendente - Guide presso True North Wilderness Program

Guides are well trained and work closely with the Therapists.

Weather can be a challenge, especially with new and resistant students.

It is a job that allows you a full scope of care which I appreciated allowing you to be close with the kids in a setting where you really learn about mental illness/behavior patterns/ etc. It was a well run program. They seemed to truly care about the kids and it provided me with life experience/learning/lessons/relationships that I will carry with me forever.

Hard work/life balance. Seemed split between two worlds, world at home and world at work. Extreme amounts of responsibility, which can be positive but you must be up for the task.
