Who Needs This Service
We are all in need of fellow Christian brothers and sisters to come along side us as we strive to live for Christ. As important as this is for anyone, it is even more important for those who have been isolated from their family and society because of addictive behaviors.
Studies show that Christian aftercare can reduce recidivism to as little as 15% and without this type of assistance, in as little as two years, as many as 75% of men released from confinement will return to their former life.
