Is there a place in Louisiana to help troubled teens, like a camp?

I may need use of some kind of place to send a certain teenager who needs help and direction from someone firm that teaches self respect and a work ethic. I'm not looking for a boot camp, just some kind of summer thing if there is one. Thanks.
Whoa! Easy there partners! I was asking for help, not critisism. And by the way, she's not my daughter she's my stepdaughter and we agree she needs some kind of place where she can be with other kids learning to work with others and build up some self esteem. I hope maybe you contact me when you get a stepdaughter who is circling the drain and you feel completely helpless about it.
Thank you so much irish eyes for your wonderful link. I already found a place that may be able to HELP MY STEPDAUGHTER WORK THROUGH HER EMOTIONAL PROBLEMS AND GIVE HER SOME POSITIVE DIRECTION, which was the point of my question to begin with. Thank you again!
 
If it's your kid how about you send yourself to parenting camp where they teach you how to raise your kids right.
 
"Troubled teens" don't automatically become that way. They have issues in the home or bad parenting that makes them that way. Might be time you stepped up as a parental figure and not send this child off for someone else to handle. How about you go to parenting classes instead?
 
I know what you mean in feeling helpless and you just don't know what to do. I'm not sure if this is what you are looking for but military camp is a good place to send your kid. They build self esteem and confidence to the teen. They provide guidance to help the teens turn their lives around for the better.
