Mount Prospect Academy is located in Plymouth, New Hampshire along the I-93 corridor, offering a staff secure intake and assessment residential treatment program and licensed special education academic facility for boys, ages 11-17.  Mount Prospect Academy seeks to provide an active milieu that emphasizes public service, adventure and healthy living. Mount Prospect Academy specializes in difficult to treat and hard to place adolescents who have had difficulties finding success in alternative environments, including other residential treatment centers. An outgrowth of the Becket School in Pike, NH, Mount Prospect Academy remains linked for vocational purposes, as MPA students actively take advantage of the Becket School’s Vocational Stewardship Program, including a culinary arts program, an agriculture and land use management program, a forestry and wildlife program, and a building trades program, all located on a 2000 acre campus bordering the White Mountain National Forest.

Highlights of the program include a dynamic counseling program that combines traditional individual and group therapy with adventure, activities based counseling approaches and wilderness therapy. Program activities include an annual trip to the Florida Everglades, regular canoe trips on the Connecticut River, hiking in the White and Green Mountains and rock climbing, including climbing at the world famous Rumney Cliffs.
