Anchored Ministries
Overview of our Program
We are a Faith-Based Recovery Program for Men and Women. We are a residential long term program. Our Program is carefully structured and designed to deal with the spiritual, physical, and emotional elements of addiction. Instead of focusing on the problem, we focus on finding the solution and achieving a lasting and dramatic change in their lives. We believe that a productive, healthy life that is free of addiction is born out of a deep and true relationship with Christ. All the teaching, curriculum, and counseling are geared toward directing residents to the cross of Jesus. Through Biblical teachings, we train men and women to act and respond to life’s challenges in an honorable manner according to scripture. Through our work program, we help them learn the value of hard work and good work ethics. Through strict self- disciplines we teach them to obey and respect authority.
How Do We Keep It Free?
On the weekends, we send the men and women on fundraising trips that provide the financial means necessary to be able to keep this program free for those who enter. It also gives them a chance to be able to minister and spread hope to others who may be facing the struggle of addiction. We also receive donations from churches and individuals. We are a Federally Recognized 501 (c)3 organization, which allows for any donations made to our non-profit to be considered as tax-deductible. We do not charge residents or their families for their stay. We do not bill their insurance.
A Day at Anchored
The students start each morning with Meditation and Gratefulness. They then eat breakfast and do chores.
We then go to Morning Prayer, where staff shares an encouraging biblical word, followed by PRAYER, PRAISE, AND WORSHIP.
They then split the day with class, and what we refer to as work detail. Class is split into 2 parts, contract work (individual bible study) and group study. We currently use teen challenge curriculum for our group studies. The men and women individually come together and relate to certain topics and how to grow through certain situations with a biblical perspective.
Our work detail program is designed to help instill work ethic into the students. There are multiple components to this part of our program, the students could be assigned. The students attend Celebrate Recovery on Tuesday evenings. They also attend church services on Sunday and Wednesday.
Additional Services
Counseling services are offered on site through Mindsight Behavioral Health. Our counselor is in twice a week to meet with residents.
We also have a staff member certified in Parenting and Anger Management classes.
Once a student has been in the program and demonstrated commitment they are eligible to sign up for free GED classes if they do not have their high school diploma.
We are also partnered with a local DUI class instructor if a client needs DUI classes to have their license reinstated.
