Center Point Summer of Success Program

What is the Center Point Summer of Success?

The Summer of Success program is an 11-week summer program hosted by the Center Point Day Program at the Diakon Wilderness Center.

We have several exciting opportunities lined up for students this year!

All students will also engage in restorative activities and competency development sessions, covering topics such as anger management, substance awareness, and social-emotional learning. Diakon Family Life Services will be available for telehealth support for students in need of drug and alcohol services.

Lastly, students will have the chance to participate in adventure-based learning activities utilizing high-challenge courses, low ropes, and team-building exercises led by our experienced staff.
