Evidence-Based Treatment Combined With A Faith-Based Foundation
Adult & Teen Challenge is a leading substance use disorder program with centres across the world. We provide faith-based treatment with holistic services to those battling addictions, such as behavioural therapy, and help dealing with withdrawal symptoms in a supported environment.
How Widespread Is Addiction in Canada?
Studies show that in Canada, it’s estimated that approximately 21% of the population (about 6 million people) will meet the criteria for a substance abuse disorder in their lifetime. Given the high number of people in need of treatment for substance abuse issues and dual diagnosis treatment for those with co-occurring mental illness, it’s imperative rehab centres are available to help.
Incorporating Biblical Principles Into Rehab
"No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it."
— Corinthians, 10:13-14
No matter how far a person has strayed from their path, one of the foundations and tenets of our beliefs is that Jesus Christ forgives us. With our incorporation of faith-based options and spiritual support, plus our state-of-the-art drug abuse programs offering a holistic approach to recovery, Adult & Teen Challenge is the rehab you need!
Drug and Alcohol Addiction Treatment Programs for Women
If you’re a woman struggling to stay sober from drugs and alcohol, we offer a women-only rehab program to help you recover from substance use disorders. Our addiction treatment programs offer guidance on how to build a stronger relationship with God and the means to earn workplace certificates and learn about relapse prevention. Adult & Teen Challenge of Central Canada has two exclusive women-only alcohol treatment centers, one in Brandon, Manitoba, and one in Thunder Bay, Ontario.
The Brandon Centre is located on a small plot of beautiful natural space in the heart of the wilderness 15 minutes from Brandon. This facility features a large yard and roomy indoor spaces to conduct group therapy or simply relax, as well as a large wraparound patio to enjoy the view. We’re currently planning to create a family expansion within the Brandon centre to allow mothers to have their children in the rehab program with them while they heal.
Our Thunder Bay women’s treatment center is a 10-bed house near the Lake Superior waterfront. Residents cook and dine in an open-concept kitchen and sleep in cozy rooms that overlook the Sleeping Giant. The curriculum at Thunder Bay, as with our other location, focuses on addiction treatment, as well as life skills coaching to get women back on their path to success once they leave rehab.
Substance Abuse Treatment for Men
To heal from addiction spiritually as well as physically, men need a strong fellowship with other like-minded men. The men’s live-in treatment programs have dynamic daily schedules that include plenty of time to take in faith-based teachings to help you connect to what matters most, as well as on-the-job training and individual counselling.
Adult & Teen Challenge of Canada offers four men’s rehab centres: one in Northern Saskatchewan, one in Thunder Bay, Ontario, and two in Manitoba. The men’s centre in Thunder Bay is a cozy three-story home with room for 10 residents, situated in a local neighbourhood. If you want to go through drug rehab in Saskatchewan, you’ll love the sober living centre at Denare Beach.
The large Steinbach rehab complex offers the Live-In Discipleship Program that focuses on personal growth and development with a community of people seeking long-term sobriety, as well as job skills training and certification. In the heart of downtown, the four-story Winnipeg centre can house 40 residents. Whether you want to undergo addiction recovery in a sprawling urban metro or a serene wooded area, Adult & Teen Challenge of Central Canada has the perfect faith-based addiction treatment program for you.
