Addiction Services

Counselling

Adult & Teen Challenge of Pembina Valley

The vision of having a "Community Office" is to provide a range of services and support to those in need,  The Community Office approach has proven to be a beneficial first point of contact for anyone dealing with addiction.  

These offices provide meeting spaces for our Clinical and Pastoral Counselling along with Family and Outreach small support groups programs. As each office develops the support and relationships that have formed to create a new foundation of success for graduates returning to the community. Ultimately the Community Office facilitates action in the fight against addiction by supporting and referring people to real life-changing help  - a strategy that ultimately serves the whole community as it initiates and helps provide long-term lasting change.

At Adult & Teen Challenge we believe that by working with and bringing communities together, we can effectively "Put Hope Within Reach" in the lives of those affected by the wide variety of life-controlling issues. This location functions as the Pembina Valley Community Ministry Office and features a thrift store.  Plans have been developed to create an operational regional headquarters which will encompass a community office, residential home and sanctuary.

Ready Now Recovery (Men's & Womens)

Ready Now Recovery is committed to creating an outreach component designed to strategically engage the “not ready” in overcoming addictions to substances, gambling, pornography and other illicit obstacles in your life. Our goal is for everyone impacted by addictions and other life-controlling issues to have access to recovery through Jesus Christ.

There is not a determined length of time for this program. You determine the groups you need for healthy recovery. We give resources to create an action plan and set goals concerning your relationships, education, employment, and spiritual growth. We also recommend that you build a team that helps you through the process of recovery.

Adult & Teen Challenge of Central Canada rebranded our outpatient approach to Ready Now Recovery in June 2021.

We believe that real change comes from what God can do on the inside of us. If you are interested in recovery, Adult & Teen Challenge of Central Canada is the place for you.

While there are multiple effective approaches to addiction, such as inpatient and outpatient treatment, long-term addiction treatment programs have the greatest statistics for a successful recovery process. Addiction treatment has come a long way, and today’s treatment programs treat both substance abuse and the underlying drivers of addiction, while instilling values, balance and faith.

Understanding the Live-In Program

Full-service live-in addiction treatment programs allow clients to engage in a series of evidence-based therapies on-site. Offering comfort and privacy from the outside world, clients are able to fully focus on recovery in a safe space.

Therapists, Phase Managers, Counsellors, Pastors and Ministry Staff are on hand around the clock to provide the necessary support. This includes a series of recreational activities aimed at promoting the development of healthy coping mechanisms and encouraging fellowship between clients.  Additionally, we will guide our clients in job skills training, like workplace certifications programs and resume building.

Is this program the same as IOP?

Live-In programs may be thought of as intensive inpatient treatment (IOP) or Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP) due to their use of long-term stays, but they go a step further by allowing guests to reside at the centers for 12-18 months. Consistent substance abuse treatment from the same team throughout the program is the standard Adult & Teen Challenge is looking to set, as drug abuse is a growing concern in Canada.

Benefits of the Long Term Program for Addiction

In contrast with short-term programs and outpatient treatment, long-term treatment goes one step further, steeping patients in an environment conducive to healing the mind, body and soul. At Adult & Teen Challenge, we aim to change that through the compassionate and goal-oriented approach we take in our addiction treatment.

What we See as a Benefit

Experience has taught us we all need to “own” the responsibility for our thoughts, choices, and life patterns. Painful experiences and complex trauma can contribute to life-controlling addiction but cannot be a reason for remaining in addiction. Within our live-in program, we will help you to take a responsible look at your life so that healing can occur.  This along with many other teaching moments will help you learn valuable lessons and guide positivity in your life. Your negative experiences do not need to dictate your future.

Clients are able to come to terms with the root of the problem and understand the unhealthy behaviors that lead to substance abuse. The focus is on awareness, respect and honesty. Recovery is about breaking through the cycle of unhealthy behavior, and to this end, clients will be guided to form healthy coping mechanisms and regain a sense of peace in their lives.
