The Christian Addiction Recovery and Education Program (C.A.R.E.)

4 Phases of Recovery

During the four phases of our program, men and women attend educational classes designed to work on specific areas of concern, such as addictions, low self-esteem, coping skills, money management, relationships and anger, while learning new skills. Find out more about each phase of our recovery program below.

The first half of the program focuses on building a solid, biblical foundation and addressing our guests’ immediate needs and addiction struggles. The second half focuses on educational and vocational needs, while offering opportunities to develop or strengthen a relationship with Christ.

Residents are introduced to intensive 12-step coursework as well as basic Christianity and family of origin issues.

Residents explore the meaning and purpose of life through such studies as The Purpose Driven Life and The Search for Significance while learning how to develop healthy relationships in life.

Residents learn to take their Christian faith to deeper levels in such classes as Measure of Maturity and Walking with the Master. Addiction is revisited in the Life Recovery series, which explores the forgiveness principles found in the Bible.

Men and women prepare to return to society as productive members through Planning for Success, which connects them with vocational training agencies, social service resources, budgeting and finance, and job interview/resume skills.

In Phase 4, residents are experiencing God in various ways to firm up their spiritual foundation and join God in his work. All residents are held to strict guidelines to ensure their road to sobriety and that a new life is a successful one!

A Focus on the Future

Throughout recovery, work therapy is vital, and residents are assigned to various work areas such as the warehouse, maintenance crew, or thrift stores. They utilize existing skills or are trained in such areas as retail, electronics, furniture repair, maintenance, and forklift operations. Guests also have the opportunity for vocational training such as a Certificated 6-month Culinary Program.

Residents also attend daily chapel service, prayer meetings, Bible studies and weekly services at the Mission’s Journey Church.
