About Hope Center Ministries – Oklahoma City Men’s Center – Oklahoma City
Hope Center Ministries in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, has designed its own three phase recovery program. They help men who are battling addiction through the different stages of recovery over the course of one year. Their mission is to lead clients and their families to become devoted followers of Christ.
Phase 1 is four weeks long and consists of a twelve step program, counseling, spiritual development, daily reflections, Bible study, family support and family visits. You’ll also have chores to do here and recreation time while receiving support from sponsoring churches like weekend services, pastoral care, and specific small group sessions.
Phase 2 is 40 weeks long. It has all of the elements of the first phase but the daily chores are mixed in or replaced by a total of 40 hours per week of vocational training. This job training program can help you and the other guys learn how to handle responsibilities and stress. That way, you can better deal with everyday life when you’re back out in the world.
Phase 3 lasts for eight weeks and keeps the elements of Phase 1 and residents are given more privileges or responsibilities as they get closer to living independently again. You’ll hone in financial skills while starting to earn income so you’ll have some spending money when you leave the center and you’ll have personal phone and driving privileges during this phase.
If you’re sent to Hope Center by a court or probation officer, they provide a liaison that handles those communications and paperwork so you can focus on your recovery.
Residents have access to a gym and a snack shack, and they have a Saturday Fun Day with activities like paintball, lake visits and even skydiving. They also have weekend retreats to beaches or mountains.
The full admission here is $700 but there may be some help if needed.
