About The Salvation Army Bell Lighthouse Corps – Los Angeles
The Salvation Army Bell Lighthouse Corps offers a unique residential program for adults battling substance use disorder. Established in 1865, The Salvation Army provides charitable social services to people in need worldwide. This Bell, California, location offers a faith based program that helps over 150,000 people reach recovery every year.
Their residential care offers a safe living environment to step away from outside distractions and focus on recovery. Their six month program uses a holistic work therapy approach, emphasizing spirituality, life skills development and individual and group counseling.
What stands out most to me is their program length. You’ll benefit from long term support and encouragement to reach your recovery goals. With six months in treatment you can move at a pace that works best for you. It gives you plenty of time to build a work ethic, reinforce coping skills and grow spiritually. That way you can leave their program with a healthy routine in place and the tools to advance in recovery.
Another great feature that caught my eye was the fact that their program is typically free. Since charitable donations fund their programs you can access their services regardless of insurance or finances. You won’t have to let finances deter you from getting the help you need.
Lastly, their emphasis on creating a personal relationship with God also stood out to me. Spirituality can be an essential recovery factor for many. You’ll benefit from spiritual direction and counseling to learn more about God and strengthen your relationship. Then you’ll have a higher power to guide and support you throughout your journey.
