As NWP III enters into its 6th year we are excited to announce that the program will be offering
open enrollment beginning September 21, 2009.
We have heard from many of you that cycles or specific program start dates have limited your access to the program. Our hope is that with the
availability of open enrollment, you will have greater access to the gender-specific programming NWP III provides.
In addition, our clients are often those who have experienced extreme emotions, attempt to avoid distress by engaging in harmful behaviors
(drug use, elopements, promiscuity, self harm, etc.) and whose mental health issues have seriously impacted their ability to remain safe in
their communities. Our commitment to providing quality mental health treatment to adolescent females from a trauma informed perspective,
will be enhanced by being able to admit clients more efficiently.
NWP III Treatment Focus:
- Integrated DBT programming (e.g. Mindfulness Yoga, weekly DBT skills group)
- Psychiatric evaluations and ongoing medication management
- Individual therapy provided by DBT trained therapist
- Service Learning
- Independent Living Skills
- Experiential treatment - outdoor adventures, fitness initiatives, and equine assisted therapy

Thank you to all of those who supported our event through donations and volunteer efforts – our event was a huge success due
to your generosity. Thank you also to the golfers. We appreciate your support of the Passage Foundation and we love that
you help us make this event so much more than a simple fundraiser. Having you all come out with such enthusiasm for this
day really makes this event one of the best days of summer! Together you all have helped us once again have an incredibly
successful event. We’re incredibly proud to report that this year’s event raised just over $13,000!
In the 8 years since the Passage Foundation was founded, with the incredible help and support of vendors, community
members, and golfers -- we’ve raised more than $90,000. All proceeds from this event will be used to provide monetary awards to worthy candidates from the Northwest System
to help them continue on a path of success in their lives. If you missed this event or want to get your calendar set for next year, it’s easy. Our annual golf event is always
held the second Friday in August. That will be Friday, August 13, 2010. If you would like to make sure you are on the
mailing list for Passage Foundation events, including next year’s golf tournament, please contact Laura at Northwest
Passage II by phone at 715-635-7204 or by email at
