Pensacola Florida Men's Center - A Christian Rehab for Addictions

The Pensacola Florida Men's Center is one of over 200 Adult and Teen Challenge USA residential programs throughout the United States. These Christian recovery centers offer a variety of programs that include drug addiction help, alcohol recovery, and services for youth, adults and families. Admission requirements, fees, and tuition costs vary from program to program.

The benefits of Adult and Teen Challenge's long-term residential recovery program are many, beginning with how we identify those who participate. We do not call them clients or residents. We refer to them as students, because they learn a new way of living. At our alternative Christian recovery centers students are given the following opportunities when they enter our programs:

• They are able to separate themselves from the environment and relationships that have contributed to their life-controlling problems.
• They come into a controlled environment which helps them to avoid the substances and behaviors that have contributed to their self-destruction.
• They enter into a loving and supportive Christian community.
• They are mentored by others who have walked the same path to freedom and understand the process they are going through as they grow.
• They are positioned to confront the destructive thoughts, beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors that led to their life-controlling problems.
• They are given the opportunity to cultivate the life practice of personal prayer and daily devotions.
• They participate in work programs designed to teach a positive work ethic, responsibility, and pride in a job well-done, regardless of the tasks they are assigned to complete. Because many work programs generate funding for Adult and Teen Challenge programs, students are given the opportunity to contribute to their own recovery through their work, which gives them a sense of productivity and dignity.
