Services

Residential Addiction Recovery Program
Our Residential Recovery Program for men suffering from drug and alcohol addiction, is a 9-12 month program that offers men the ability to escape the vice-grip of addiction through individual and group counseling, Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, sexual addiction classes, anger management training, Bible studies, life skills classes, education classes, career enhancement classes, and an after care program for graduates. To learn responsibility, leadership, and stewardship they also are required to work at the mission in all capacities, including dishwashing, cooking, and cleaning.

Homeless Ministries and Community Outreach
We are currently ministering to a growing number of the 4,000 people living on 6th street. We have Bible Studies and AA meetings in several Single Room Occupancy Hotels (SRO's). Our food box program includes distribution from our building and delivery to hotels and apartment complexes. We have special events and programs to meet the needs of families including back-to-school resources and holiday food boxes. Soon we will have English as a second language as well as GED help and computer skills for the adults in the communities where we are working. The mission is to see individuals, families and communities transformed.

Transitional Shelter
The Transitional Shelter program provides a stable and safe environment and case management for 10 chronically homeless men and graduates from our addiction recovery program. For entrance into the transitional shelter, these men must be enrolled in school, working, or looking for work. For those needing additional job readiness skills and work placement assistance we offer entrance into our Homeless Job Empowerment Program (HJEP). HJEP is a soft skills/ job readiness training program. The HJEP program assists these individuals in achieving economic self-sufficiency and housing by addressing the barriers most homeless people face in obtaining employment and housing. We offer a bed with shower and laundry facilities and mail, phone, and internet access, nutritious meals, job preparation, search and placement, resume assistance, instruction in interview skills, computer skills classes, money management and financial education classes, legal services, and case management for each client.
