About Men’s & Women’s Center – Beckley
LifeChangers’ Outreach West Virginia Men & Women’s Center is a free residential addiction treatment program in Beckley, West Virginia. Located in the peaceful Appalachian mountains, they provide a faith based alternative to traditional drug and alcohol rehab programs.
Like many other addiction treatment programs, you’ll work on your spiritual, emotional, and physical health. What’s unique here is the focus on faith. You’ll spend time learning to embrace your faith and let it guide you through the tough stuff.
You’ll also be encouraged to be an active member. Attending worship services is a big part of things, and so is community outreach. Another unique feature of this program is that once you finish treatment, you may be offered a job in the ministry.
It’s not just about getting through the program, it’s about being ready to live a sober life. The counselors are there to help with individual and group sessions.
Peer support is a big deal here. You’ll have people around you who help you stay accountable. The counselors have all been where you are right now, so they understand the challenges you’re facing.
You’ll also work on relapse prevention strategies. They give you the tools to manage triggers and stay strong in your recovery long after you leave.
Life-skills workshops focus on real life issues like managing anger, practicing forgiveness, and improving relationships. Social skills are also a big part of the program because healthy connections with others are key to long-term recovery.
The workshops give you practical ways to handle challenges that come up every day. They also offer graduates an opportunity to attend college so you can get a head start on building work skills.
Their work program teaches you discipline, ethics, and respect for authority. You’ll put in the effort to develop responsibility and learn how to stay committed. What you learn in the work program will shape you into someone who values hard work.
