Freedom From Addiction Starts Here
OUR VISION IS SEEING ALL PEOPLE FREED FROM LIFE-CONTROLLING ISSUES THROUGH THE POWER OF JESUS CHRIST!
What Makes Us Different?
Transformation – Not Treatment
The biggest difference between Adult & Teen Challenge and a traditional recovery center is our focus on Christ. Our programs depend on the power of the Holy Spirit and God’s word to provide our students with a guiding light. Treatment is important, but transformation is key
Discipleship & Evangelism
Through our Bible-based curriculum, students learn how to apply God’s Word to their lives. They also learn to recognize the Holy Spirit’s work in their lives, invite God to help them overcome their life-controlling problems, and become more like Christ.
Long-Term Residential Programs
Most of our programs last an average of 12-18 months. This timeframe provides ample opportunity for adults and teens to confront their destructive choices, their self-sabotaging behavior, and their unhealthy views. It then gives them a safe place to establish a new “normal”— assured of the love of God and under the guidance of Biblical principles.

"Adult & Teen Challenge is a channel of God’s love. It’s a place where you can come and just be accepted and know that everyone in the room, including staff, has been where you are."

"Since being in Adult & Teen Challenge, God has really just broke down my walls like nobody else’s business. Like nobody else could. And that’s something I really didn’t expect. I was hoping, but I didn’t expect it to happen like it has."
JamesAdult & Teen Challenge Graduate 
"I was deep into heroin addiction within six months. Homeless, a prostitute, sleeping on bus benches, and had lost everything. I was tired, and so when I heard about Adult & Teen Challenge, I was so ready and excited."
