“I would say if it weren’t for Chrysalis, I wouldn’t have been who I am today because I was a shy person- if I didn’t come here I would also have been maybe addicted to drugs because most of my friends I had are drugs addict, they can’t get rid of the drugs... and due to the fact that I came to Chrysalis I’m not even regretting I was here and thanks to Chrysalis I’m glad to say I’m a person- I’m proud to be who I am today.” (Female graduate in 2005 from Hanover Park)
Outdoor Phase In the Outdoor Phase, the students head to the great outdoors where they can practice the newly acquired life skills, especially teamwork and problem solving. Their personal limits are tested and individual awareness is encouraged, while learning to abseil, kayak, rock climb and hike, amongst a host of other challenging activities. After this phase, students are allowed to see visitors for the first time since the start of the course. By this time, they are all fit, highly motivated and their self confidence is obvious.
