This is more than a substance-abuse program, it is an opportunity for community and purpose in that community.

It is a Christ-centered program of rigorous authenticity, willingness, and humility.

This program requires residents to attend classes, meetings, chores, exercise, counseling, etc. on a daily basis.

Residents do not work for the first half of the program.

Men, Women, and Families have the option to join our program (given available bed space).

Following graduation, students can continue to live in the Mission’s Transitional Housing for a period of time at no cost to them as they establish a work history, build up a savings account, and begin the transition to independent living.
