About

Pacific Quest is a residential behavioral-health program in Hilo, Hawaii. The program describes itself as a licensed and accredited residential treatment center for adolescents and young adults, with services that combine clinical care, nature-based experiences, whole-person wellness, and horticultural therapy.

Pacific Quest says it began in 2004 as an alternative to rugged survival-style wilderness programming. Its public materials describe adolescent programming for ages 13-17 and young-adult services for older participants.

The program has also been listed in the National Association of Therapeutic Schools and Programs directory, which describes Pacific Quest as using a neurodevelopmental approach integrated with horticultural therapy and evidence-based therapeutic methods.
