RedCliff Ascent is a proud member of the National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs.

Length of Stay

RedCliff's therapeutic wilderness curriculum is designed for a length of stay from 30 to 60 plus days. However, the average length of stay has been found to be between 45 and 60 days in the program. RedCliff was the first wilderness program in the country to offer open enrollment and a variable length of stay. This policy of a variable length of stay is based upon our philosophy that every student is different and that they progress at a different rate. We also believe it is extremely important that the student understands that their graduation from the program is dependent upon their work and effort towards achieving treatment goals rather than surviving a predetermined length of stay in the program.
