OUR FOUR PHASE PROGRAM FOR HEALING AND EMPOWERMENT
1) THE GRACE PHASE - Stabilization/Safety/Trust (Months 3-9)
Grace is the power by which healing occurs. In the first phase of our program residents will focus on learning how to love themselves by exploring God’s unconditional love for them. They will participate in trauma-informed classes (approximately 15 hours per week), learn about self exploration (self-care), safety, life skills, healthy coping methods, engage in multiple positive group activities, experience encouragement, all while participating in various health and wellness services. 
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” -Psalm 147:3
2) THE FREEDOM PHASE - Healing/Growth (Months 6-14) 
Freedom is always to be both free from something in order to be free for something. The second phase of our program will center on teaching residents to think beyond themselves by putting into action what God calls us to do: to serve others. Residents will dive deeper into their counseling sessions and therapeutic activities while taking on basic leadership roles within the program. Residents begin researching and finalizing their individualized education plans, which may include online GED prep courses, college courses, trade schools, or specialized certificates. Residents will also begin to receive aid with any legal or financial issues they have on their records.
“As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good servants of the manifold grace of God.” -1 Peter 4:10
3) THE HOPE PHASE - Building your Dream (Months 10-24)
Hope means looking to the future with assurance. Because we know Jesus, we know we have hope. Residents will be expected to create a 1-2 year plan towards independent offsite living, while continuing their weekly trauma informed courses, group wellness activities, and going to school or job training part-time. Money management, and legal assistance for any existing criminal records, will be offered. Residents have an opportunity to lead within group activities. This may include guest speaking, organizing new or on-going projects, heading a life skills course, and/or volunteering within the local community. 
“For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” -Jeremiah 29:11
4) THE THRIVE PHASE - New Life for Independent Living (Months 18-36)
Our pain has purpose. In the final phase of our recovery program residents will have completed their transition to off-site living. They will experience new life with independent living in this post-residential phase with reintegration support, ensuring they have the services they need. This includes connecting with outside recovery support groups and a church home, nutrition assistance, and providing them to resources for any necessities. 
“Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new.” -2 Corinthians 5:17
