The John Volken Academy has campuses in the United States and Canada providing long-term life-skills training to men ages 18 to 55. The program is extremely effective because participants receive extensive personal development, career preparation, education, and healthy-living practice – all essential for permanent recovery.

Students develop mentally, physically, socially, emotionally, and spiritually until they are ready to live as responsible, contributing members of society -for life!
