Family/Loved One Support

Adult & Teen Challenge’s Family Support Groups

Concerned Persons Group is a crucial part of Ready Now Recovery, as we have seen first-hand the impact a loved one can have on a person struggling with addiction when they have learned healthy coping skills and have broken free from codependency.

This is a group for people who have or have had a loved one struggling with life-controlling addictions. Concerned Persons walks group members through enabling, codependency and healthy communication with their loved one. Boundaries is another course that we offer for family members.

This course teaches people how to set healthy boundaries to protect their personal well-being while walking alongside someone who is struggling.

When we joined the concerned persons support group we were feeling fragile and alone. We noticed that we were desiring and wanting our son to get better more than what he wanted for himself. Going through the material together with others gave us comfort, renewed hope and strength to let go. The Lord showed us areas where we were enabling our son and we learnt that we are powerless to fix what is wrong in our loved one’s lives. We recognized that it was important for us to let go, get out of the way and allow God to work in our son’s life.

Shortly after Kyle and I received help, our son accepted help from Adult & Teen Challenge and completed the 4-Tier Program. The Lord is restoring our family, we are growing in interacting healthier with each other and experiencing so much more peace. Thank you Jesus, thank you Adult & Teen Challenge.

– Kyle, Merle & Family

"In our Living Free group we could share our pain and our concerns with one another; and more than that, we could learn how not to enable our son, where we could find true comfort in the ashes of despair, and to find true hope to get us through this."

When I was introduced to crystal meth my life spiralled completely out of control and sadly this went on for years before I finally came to the end of myself and knew I needed help. I entered the Adult & Teen Challenge Manitoba Women’s Campus and everything changed. God met me there and showed me a new meaning and purpose for my life.

At age 13, I experimented with ecstasy, marijuana and alcohol. I felt worthless and hopeless and the next 17 years my drug use escalated into crack cocaine and fentanyl. I had been charged with many criminal offences and my lawyer told me about Adult & Teen Challenge. I was accepted to Thunder Bay men’s program and a month later I accepted Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour and was baptised. I have learned how God loves me and has a plan for my life, discovering my true identity in Christ. He healed me, giving me joy, peace and purpose.

Before I entered the Adult & Teen Challenge program I used and sold drugs. I was a violent person and did things that landed me in jail. I believed I was coming to the end of myself with my only options being death by drugs, violence or spending the rest of my life in jail. But God had a different plan. During my last time in jail I committed the next year to ATC because of the love of my family and Robby Ahuja. Getting to know Jesus has changed my life. Slowly but surely he is growing inside me. I sing and I dance because He lives in my heart. Now I have love and forgiveness and am committed for life
