Christian-Based Healing Philosophy
The center encompasses a deeply rooted, faith-based approach to recovery. The program centers on biblical principles, daily worship, and 12-step facilitation, offering clients spiritual grounding as a path to long-term healing. This model helps many women find new meaning and direction while addressing the root causes of substance use in a supportive setting.
Dedicated Care for Pregnant and Postpartum Women
Specialized residential care is provided for adult women, including those who are pregnant or have recently given birth. The program integrates trauma-related counseling with recovery support adapted to the emotional and physical needs of motherhood, helping women heal and develop positive habits while preparing to care for themselves and their children.
Structured Living and Life Skills Education
Clients follow a disciplined daily schedule that promotes stability and accountability, including set times for group sessions, personal reflection, chores, and spiritual study. Life skills training focuses on real-world readiness and covers topics like job search strategies, workplace conduct, and budgeting. Employment counseling and mentorship help women build confidence and prepare for long-term independence, making the transition out of residential care more sustainable.
Strong Community and Peer Support
The program fosters a close-knit, faith-based community where women support one another through shared experiences and structured group activities. Daily group counseling and peer mentoring sessions encourage openness and mutual encouragement. Living in a communal setting, residents build relationships rooted in trust and shared commitment to recovery, creating a meaningful network that reinforces healthy routines and spiritual growth.
What Clients Say
Women who complete the program consistently highlight personal transformation and renewed hope. Testimonials reflect profound change, and many speak of emotional healing, spiritual renewal, and the strength found in community. As one former client noted, “I now live clean and sober and with joy.”
