Who we are

Our Mission
We are a spiritually driven community committed to empowering people to break free from addiction. By connecting individuals with vital resources and community, we stand with them on their journey toward faith, healing, and recovery.

Our Mission

Our Vision

Imagine a world where addiction and homelessness no longer hold people back from living happy, healthy, and purposeful lives! Our nonprofit is dedicated to making this vision a reality one person at a time. By ensuring everyone has the tools needed through an all-inclusive approach to wellness, spirituality, and recovery, we are empowering people to break free from the chains of addiction.

 

At the heart of our mission, we strive to offer a comprehensive range of resources that include healthcare access, tools for job preparedness and employment opportunities, assistance in securing transitional housing, and finding nurturing support within faith-based and recovery communities.

Hands Up
Comforting

Our Goal

We know the need for quality transitional living. Our goal is to obtain property in order to open a recovery house. Promoting a faith-based and sustainable recovery environment, we can help people regain and rebuild their lives. Many people who are suffering from substance abuse lack a safe place to heal, and as a result, they are never able to reach their full potential. It is our goal to provide people with a clean, safe environment where they can feel at home, have time to heal, and learn about God's Word.

My Recovery Journey

For decades, I struggled with addiction and truly believed I might never break free. I reached a point where I felt completely defeated—but something in me decided to try one more time. That single decision changed everything.

I threw myself into my 12-step fellowship, surrounded myself with people who understood, and found a church where I could serve and grow. Every day, I prayed Psalm 51:10-12 and 9:14 over my life—sometimes with confidence, sometimes through tears—but I didn’t give up.

Today, by the grace of God, I am 7 years renewed. He has given me a new heart, a new spirit, and a life filled with purpose. With the support of my recovery community and the spiritual guidance that carried me through, I now walk in hope, faith, and freedom I once thought was impossible.

If you feel like you’re on your last try, please know—there is still hope. I’m living proof.

Change my heart, O Lord, and put a new and right spirit within me; do not cast me away from your presence, and do not take your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of your salvation and sustain in me a willing spirit.
Psalms 51:10-12
