Transforming the Lives of Teen Girls Through Mentoring, Educational Repair, Family-Style Care and Heart-Level Character Development
We believe no young woman is beyond redemption and no family is beyond restoration. BGA exists to provide adolescent girls with a safe, structured, Christ-centered environment where they can grow in their identity, develop personal responsibility, strengthen academically, and begin rebuilding healthy relationships with themselves, their families, and others.
Lifetime transformation
BGA helps teenage girls rediscover their identity, build confidence, and move toward a healthier future. Each girl is supported in a safe, structured environment where she is known and valued. Through academics, personal development, and life skills, girls learn better decision-making, resilience, and strong character. Daily activities build self-worth, while caring staff provide 24/7 guidance and support.
we serve GIRLS AGES 13-17
Our residents are teenage girls, ages 13–17, who may be struggling with challenging or risky behaviors such as negative peer influences, defiance, dishonesty, manipulation, stealing, unhealthy relationships, self-harm, running away, or difficulty succeeding in a traditional school environment. Many arrive feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected from a positive path forward. Our goal is to help each girl experience real, lasting change by building a strong foundation for her future.
Our Tuition is Far Less than Typical Therapeutic Boarding Schools
Boise Girls Academy is a state-licensed, year-round therapeutic boarding school helping girls, ages 13-17, who are struggling with life-impacting issues and making poor decisions.
Can BGA Help My Daughter?
Boise Girls Academy provides a caring, structured environment where teenage girls can step away from negative influences, develop healthier patterns, rebuild confidence, and begin making meaningful changes in their lives. Through consistent guidance, mentoring, academics, and a supportive family-style setting, we help girls gain the character, responsibility, and direction they need to move toward a healthier future.
Deciding whether your daughter needs this level of support can be difficult. Every situation is different, but certain behaviors, emotional struggles, and your girl’s lack of care for her own future are warning signs that may indicate that the support available at home is no longer enough. Recognizing those signs can help you determine whether it may be time to consider a more structured environment. Call us to learn how Boise Girls Academy can help your daughter and restore your family and your daughter’s future.

High Risk behaviors, Substance abuse
Isolation and Threats of self-harm
Drastic changes in appearance and behavior
Addiction to social media

BGA Testimonial
“We are in awe of the way God has worked in Haley and our family. In the beginning, we were confident that God would deliver Haley but we had no idea when or how that would happen. When Hailey entered the Boise Girls Academy, our family began prayer and scripture studies in an effort to become closer in our relationship with Christ and as a family. As we prayed for God to work in Haley’s life, He began pruning and growing all of us and we realized that God wasn’t just transforming Haley’s heart but ours as well. God has done more than we could ever ask or imagine, and our daughter has returned to us. She is a new creation in Christ and our family has been made whole again. We are so grateful for the kingdom work that Adult & Teen Challenge is doing.”
