Since 1885, the heart of Baptist Children’s Homes (BCH) has beat with a rhythm of hope that extends to children and families. Join BCH’s ministry as a Wilderness Instructor at Camp Duncan!

Camp Duncan for girls is a year-round relationship-based ministry to at-risk youth in a wilderness setting. Girls live in groups of ten with three wilderness instructors, “Chiefs.” Campers learn discipline, positive behavior patterns and self-worth. The heart of the ministry is building a daily partnership and relationship with youth. Wilderness Instructors live with the group in a primitive campsite setting with the purpose of helping troubled youth resolve past issues and current life conflicts while developing healthy relationships and living habits.

The Christ-centered camp program provides children and their families an opportunity to work out challenges and problems in order to experience healing and reunification. Living in the outdoors year-round, fishing, climbing trees, paddling 200 miles down a river in Florida or Georgia, camping by a lake in North or South Carolina, and backpacking the Appalachian Trail in Virginia – are all part of the camp adventure. Camp Duncan is a licensed, non-public school.
