The Other Side Academy Details
The Other Side Academy is a 2-year self-sustaining residential life-skills and vocational training program for women and men in long-term criminal behavior, drug addiction and homelessness. Students pay nothing to attend. We are unique in 3 ways.1. Peer run. We don't rely on professionals to ‘cure' or ‘heal' us. We use peer accountability in a highly structured family environment. Both students and staff come from the same background.2. Self-funded. We're self-sufficient, generating the revenue we need to cover all of our operational expenses. Running social enterprises is the therapeutic context and vocational training that helps students succeed after graduation. 3. Behaviors not drugs. We're not a drug treatment program. We're about "whole person change." Our goal is to help students create an entirely new identity and lifestyle for themselves. We deal with the underlying behaviors and view of self that originally led to symptoms like addiction and criminality.
