Our mission is to walk alongside men seeking freedom from addiction to Christ, providing a safe space and personalized programs for physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual transformation.
THE PROBLEM: It is highly unlikely that someone can recover and break free from addiction without access to transitional housing. Research shows that when individuals in recovery are not given enough time to assimilate and apply sober living principles, the chances of relapse increase to more than 80%Addiction GroupAddiction Group. General relapse rates for addiction are between 40% and 60%, with over 80% of people relapsing within the first yearAddiction Group. Additionally, housing instability significantly heightens the risk. Around one-third of homeless individuals struggle with substance use disorders, and those without stable housing face even greater challenges in maintaining sobrietyAddiction Group. Providing transitional housing is therefore a critical factor in reducing relapse and supporting long-term recovery. https://www.addictiongroup.org/resources/treatment-statistics/
THE SOLUTION: Many of the men we serve at Souls Harbor come to the program not only struggling with addiction but also facing the impact of homelessness, which is often a result of their addiction. While not all of our residents are homeless, the majority are. Souls Harbor provides them with safe, secure, and stable housing, along with an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) as they work through our year-long program. This program is designed to help them heal, rebuild their lives, and address the interconnected challenges of addiction, homelessness, and mental health.
THE RESULT: Upon completing the comprehensive Souls Harbor program, the men are equipped with the skills, knowledge, and faith needed to reintegrate into the community as responsible citizens and committed disciples of Christ. They emerge from the cycle of addiction with newfound confidence, stability, and a strong foundation in their mental, physical, and spiritual well-being. By addressing not only addiction but also homelessness and mental health, our program empowers them to live sober, purposeful lives, contributing positively to society and maintaining lasting recovery. Through personalized care, life-skills training, and spiritual growth, these men are prepared to lead fulfilling lives, free from the destructive patterns of their past.
