Victory Academy for Boys

VAFB is, in the purest sense, a rescue ministry. We work with parents and teen boys who have reached the end of themselves and believe they have nowhere else to turn.

Our 9 month program has the following goals:

1. We want the boys to come to a place where they accept God's Truth.
2. We want the boys to come to a place where they accept God's Truth from dad and mom.
3. We want dad and mom to return to a place of godly influence in the life of their boys.

We accomplish these goals by ministering to the whole family:

1. The Boys

• Home: The boys move to our campus in Wisconsin where we engage them in life-on-life evangelism and discipleship within the context of a healthy Christian home. We believe that Biblical Counseling rooted in the Word of God is the only hope for genuine heart change and maturity. Our average weeks includes daily devotions, church attendance, Bible class, evening chapels, and both formal and informal counseling. We also add Intensive Weeks and Retreats which focus in on key areas like worldview and sexuality.
• School: We provide excellent Christian education to maintain and mature the boys academics while they're with us.
• Enrichment: We teach the guys various life skills and provide numerous opportunities to use them. In 2019 our students took first place overall in the Center Shot archery tournament in Green Bay, WI.
• Work: Our work program teaches boys the value and ethic of Christ-honoring work. We not only work hard on campus, we've also adopted a highway, and help the local elderly and shut-ins with leaf and snow removal.
• Fun: We create various opportunities where the guys can experience adventure in God's creation and build life-long relationships with the staff in the process.

2. The Parents

• Parent Program: Our parent program is a weekly discipleship program that helps parents see how God wants to use this situation to conform them to His image. It involves accountability in church attendance and counseling, book studies, and training in how God created His Word to apply to parenting.
• Thanksgiving Family Gathering: During Thanksgiving, all of the families travel to our campus where we not enjoy the beauty of Thanksgiving in the Northwoods of Wisconsin, but we create opportunities for family fun, provide seminars for increased learning, and individualized family counseling for personal growth and family restoration.
• Family Camp: As the 9 months come to an end, we host a Family Camp designed to aid the transition from Victory to home. It's a time of fun, in-depth training in God's Word, and family-specific counseling.
