Teens are reporting an increase in depressive symptoms&nbsp;and&nbsp;suicide-related outcomes.&nbsp;Shockingly, suicide is the leading cause of death among 10\u201317-year-old children.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those experiencing adverse\u00a0social determinants of health\u2014such as lower socio-economic status, limited access to education, or food insecurity\u2014the rates are even higher.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With traditional therapy&nbsp;program&nbsp;fees&nbsp;sometimes exceeding $60,000, many families are left without alternatives&nbsp;to assist&nbsp;their teens. Pivot Adventure, a recreational therapy non-profit in Utah, is working to change this narrative.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-who-nbsp-is-pivot-adventure\"><strong><span style=\"color:#84329b\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Who&nbsp;is Pivot Adventure?<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Nestled in the Rocky Mountains,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pivotadventure.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Pivot Adventure<\/a>&nbsp;provides eight-week&nbsp;resiliency courses&nbsp;after school. These courses&nbsp;help&nbsp;teens&nbsp;build self-esteem, practice managing stressful situations, and&nbsp;foster&nbsp;a sense of community with other students.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are an outdoor mental health course,\u201d&nbsp;states&nbsp;co-founder and guide,&nbsp;Katie Allred. \u201cThink of your PE course in high school, designed to improve your physical health. We take a similar approach, but for the mental health side of things.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Part of Pivot\u2019s appeal is the adventurous activities they offer teens. In the winter,&nbsp;they&nbsp;snowshoe&nbsp;or&nbsp;cross-country&nbsp;ski,&nbsp;whereas&nbsp;the summer&nbsp;allows for&nbsp;hiking,&nbsp;rock-climbing, and&nbsp;rappelling.&nbsp;While these activities are all safe (and carefully led by certified guides),&nbsp;they offer an element of \u201cperceived risk\u201d. In this way, Pivot offers hands-on experience practicing how to manage stressful situations.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-2-1024x576.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4269\" style=\"width:496px;height:278px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-2-1024x576.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-2-300x169.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-2-768x432.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-2-1536x864.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-2.jpeg 1600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\"><em>A Pivot Adventure Guide taking three students snowshoeing<br>and sledding (used with permission). <\/em><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pivot Adventure\u2019s outcomes are&nbsp;not&nbsp;just about giving adolescents cool&nbsp;experiences. They are aimed at increasing multiple health and wellness indicators, providing&nbsp;both teens and parents&nbsp;the tools&nbsp;they need&nbsp;to thrive.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The recreational guides do this through a variety of industry-leading techniques. By keeping adventure groups small\u2014&nbsp;Resiliency courses have a ratio of 3:1&nbsp;teens&nbsp;to guides&nbsp;\u2014Pivot can tailor games, object lessons, and stories to individual needs.&nbsp;Those needing to work on communication are given difficult tasks where they&nbsp;learn to ask for help, while students who may be shy are&nbsp;encouraged to lead games and take charge.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ignoring-the-loon-noises\"><strong><span style=\"color:#84329b\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Ignoring the Loon Noises<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One way Pivot&nbsp;teaches&nbsp;teens&nbsp;to&nbsp;mitigate stress is through the example of loons.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Loons are a North American bird that&nbsp;always fly in pairs, often landing to rest on quiet lakes. If the loons hear other loon noises nearby\u2014&nbsp;or even fake loon noises&nbsp;\u2014they will immediately leave the lake to search for somewhere more secluded.&nbsp;Their fear that a bigger, scarier loon nearby can prevent them from&nbsp;resting and enjoying the lake.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are not so different. When we hear a \u201cloon noise\u201d (like a call from our boss or math exam coming up), our fight-or-flight kicks in and we stress ourselves out, sometimes to the point of missing out on a worthwhile experience.&nbsp;Pivot\u2019s guides work on helping these students recognize the loon noises in their minds and&nbsp;let them go.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During one activity, Katie was helping a student tie-in for a rock climb when she noticed the teen start to get nervous. \u201cHow are you feeling?\u201d Katie asked, to which she got no reply. Finally, the girl said, \u201cThere are so many things going through my head right now. I can\u2019t even hear.\u201d In this moment, Katie was able to remind this student that you can\u2019t make your fears go away (it\u2019s part of our biology) but you can learn to dance with them. They decided to picture a silly make-believe professor as the voice to all the noise and then laughing together, the girl successfully made the climb.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best part of this experience? She came back the following week&nbsp;and&nbsp;practiced&nbsp;dealing with the stressful situation again.&nbsp;She was able to exercise that mental health muscle.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cOnce these teens see that they have the resiliency to do hard things, the world stops happening to them, and they start happening to the world.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-3-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4270\" style=\"width:326px;height:434px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-3-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-3-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-3-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/eccovia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/image-3.jpeg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><mark style=\"background-color:rgba(0, 0, 0, 0)\" class=\"has-inline-color has-cyan-bluish-gray-color\"><em>A Pivot Adventure Guide coaches one teen through<br> a stressful moment rock-climbing (used with permission).<\/em><\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-addressing-the-whole-person\"><strong><span style=\"color:#84329b\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Addressing the Whole Person<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the most notable part of Pivot Adventure is their course structure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Typical mental health and recreation services for teens are designed to be weeks-long wilderness programs, where adolescents are&nbsp;completely stripped of any outside networks or supports. Not only is this incredibly expensive (reaching the upwards of $60,000),&nbsp;the teens are&nbsp;sometimes&nbsp;<em>forced<\/em>&nbsp;to participate even when they adamantly refuse.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, Pivot provides a once-a-week after school course that allows teens to keep their structure. They can still attend school, talk to their friends, and sleep in their own bed at night.&nbsp;Central to this plan is complete buy-in:&nbsp;the adolescents need to be just as on-board with the course as their parents.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For teens experiencing adverse social determinants of health, a course from Pivot Adventure could mean the difference between receiving help or being left behind. At only $1,500 a course (and with scholarship opportunities available), Pivot can offer&nbsp;effective mental health services to those who need it most.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>By meeting teens where they are at\u2014and recognizing the need for mental health experience as a part of&nbsp;everyday&nbsp;routine\u2014Pivot embodies the importance of a&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/eccovia.com\/caring-for-the-whole-person\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">whole person care<\/a>&nbsp;approach.&nbsp;<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-toward-nbsp-the-nbsp-future\"><strong><span style=\"color:#84329b\" class=\"has-inline-color\"><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong><strong>Toward&nbsp;the&nbsp;Future<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Pivot Adventure\u2019s hallmark comes from not only teaching self-esteem, but self-efficacy. \u201cSelf-esteem is saying,&nbsp;<em>I believe I\u2019m a good person<\/em>,\u201d&nbsp;relates Allred. \u201cSelf-efficacy is knowing&nbsp;<em>I can do hard things<\/em>.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The power of self-efficacy is that it&nbsp;works to build and reinforce self-esteem. Together, they help instill these adolescents with&nbsp;the strength and resiliency they need to better face adversity and accomplish the goals they set.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Eccovia&nbsp;is proud to be a sponsor of Pivot Adventure.
