Recovery Programs

From Brokenness To Hope

Would you or someone you care about like to make a lasting life-change? Our residential recovery programs address the root causes of homelessness in a safe and judgement-free environment.

Guests who participate agree to do the hard work of rebuilding their lives and will stay with us between 12-18 months. During that time, we honor their dignity by not doing for them what they can do for themselves; and we ask them to abstain from drugs, alcohol, unhealthy relationships and other factors that have contributed to homelessness. In turn, we offer the tools and support needed for a new start.

Program components: 

  • Classes to develop healthy relationships
  • Addiction recovery
  • Life-skills training
  • One-on-one coaching and counseling
  • Mentorship
  • Social activities
  • Volunteering experience
  • Job readiness
  • Spiritual encouragement
  • Community connections
