Reconxted – Rites of Passage camp for teenage boys and their fathers

On behalf of the Mental Health Foundation (ACT), I am excited to launch our April 2022 Rites of Passage camp for teenage boys and their fathers (or male mentor, uncle, stepdad etc) right here in Canberra.

During the camp, your teenage boys will:

• Take a break from all forms of tech (as will their fathers 😀)
• Find opportunities to safely explore issues important to them as they transition to adulthood.
• Hear stories from other men about challenges in their lives and how they dealt with those challenges
• Be challenged both physically and mentally
• Commit to behavioural changes they need to make to begin becoming independent of their parents
• Honoured for the skills and gifts that they bring to the community
• Have the opportunity to have fun and to deepen their relationship with the man that they came with
