Who This Is For

This group is for the parent who doesn't know what to do next. The spouse who has tried everything. Anyone exhausted from managing someone else's crisis and looking for people who actually understand. It doesn't matter where your loved one is — active addiction, recovery, relapse, incarceration. This group is about you.

What This Isn't

Not a 12-step program. Not therapy. Not clinical. A Christ-centered small group with structured curriculum for people in your situation.
