Camp E-Nini-Hassee was founded in 1969 by Jack and Ruth Eckerd as the first outdoor therapeutic program for girls in need of support in the southeast. We provide a positive, strength-based environment for girls ages 12-18 to experience compassionate mentorship and support.

​

Our strength-based therapeutic model incorporates reality therapy and experiential learning in a residential, outdoor therapeutic environment, using alliances with staff and group therapy to provide safety, adventure, and education. Each girl receives individualized treatment and is supported with family services. We provide an accredited education on site with certified teachers and transferable credits.

​

We help girls experiencing barriers to succeed who are struggling with school, emotional regulation and behavioral growth, confidence, causing family conflicts, experimenting with drugs, experiencing depression, or have low self-esteem.
