About Adult and Teen Challenge New England and New Jersey
Adult and Teen Challenge New England and New Jersey has been providing substance abuse treatment since 1964. They have multiple men’s, women’s and teen girls’ residential facilities and a crisis and outreach center. Their Brockton, Massachusetts location offers men’s residential services. Their programs are funded by donors. If you are able, they ask for monthly contributions to offset the cost. Their 10-12 month programs are based on a strong biblical foundation. They don’t offer crisis stabilization and outpatient treatment themselves but partner with TC Clinical Group for these services.
Residential treatment involves much more than simply treating addiction. They offer life coaching, education, vocational training and counseling. Each resident graduates with a high school equivalent. Their residential facilities are quiet and comfortable and offer nutritious meals, recreation and transportation. A large focus of these programs is on the Christian values of discipline, surrender and obedience.
I like that graduates of the program can apply for a 3 to 6 month apprenticeship. Options include carpentry, culinary arts, auto mechanics, barber school, office administration, gardening and sales and marketing.
