Residential Recovery

The benefits of Teen Challenge’s long-term residential recovery program are many. Our program is a minimum of 13 months and we have found that those who complete the full program are more likely to stay sober, have a higher level of employment, have less mental health challenges, less legal consequences, and fewer family problems because they learn an entirely new way of living.

Faith-Based
