Circle of Freedom

Our residential recovery home offers women a safe place to get grounded in their faith, find Christ-centered solutions to addiction, and begin life reestablishment.

Our home provides for up to 10 women.  The program is divided into phases with each phase bringing more independence, responsibility, and preparation towards life outside the home.  In each phase, the women work through an individualized study plan using curriculum developed by Adult and Teen Challenge USA (with a 65 year history of positive outcomes and radical life transformation in their centers across the US and Canada). Women also receive practical life-skills training in areas like developing/restoring healthy relationships, parenting, communication, financial management, cooking, and cleaning. Students are required to follow “house rules” and a daily schedule including work therapy, Bible Study, Chapel time, group activities, class time and homework assignments. Completion time varies depending on the individual but ranges between 12 and 15 months.  In later phases, women get outside employment while still having the accountability of living at the home.

 Individualized & Compassionate Care

Upon admission, each client is assessed with diagnostic criteria set forth by the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM).  Together with this assessment and other diagnostic tools (medical examination, psychiatric evaluation, a biopsychosocial analysis, etc.), we develop an Individualized Treatment Plan that addresses the client’s specific needs.  That Individualized Treatment Plan is reviewed continually with the client – and modified over time (as appropriate), based upon the client’s growth and progress while in treatment.

Our highly competent and well trained staff know and understand the disease of addiction.  Our job is not to judge or lecture our clients – nor to treat them as though they are morally deficient.  Our priority is to provide our clients with the tools necessary to treat their addictions and to improve their overall health and happiness in a life of fulfilling Recovery.
