Rites of passage were historically an integral and formal part of a young persons journey toward adulthood and thus, were a major component in the development of selfesteem. This thesis considers adolescent rites of passage as an archetypal need. The author explores how modern manifestations of these ancient rites lack mentorship and reincorporation into the community. Twentyeight youths working as crewmembers for the Youth Corps of Southern Arizona (YCOSA) were surveyed pre and postcourse to measure differences in selfesteem during an eight week wilderness program. Quantitative data revealed a statistically significant increase in selfesteem as measured by both the Coopersmith (1975) and Rosenberg (1989) selfesteem inventories, and empirical results suggests the experience was life changing, and that programs such of these may serve as modern day rites of passage for todays youth.
