About Women’s Refuge – Vero Beach
Women’s Refuge of Vero Beach is a residential treatment center for women aged 18 and up. Based in Vero Beach, Florida, the beautiful facilities offer a safe landing place for women facing substance abuse or mental health disorders. They provide Bible based teaching and counseling for individuals, groups, and families.
Women’s Refuge offers a two week program and a nine month program. The two week program is a condensed version of the extended program, which is designed for women with time constraints or those unsure about entering the long term program.
The nine month program is divided into three phases. The first phase focuses on building healthy coping mechanisms and identifying self harming beliefs you’re carrying. The second phase focuses on learning God’s word in the Bible. The final phase is all about giving back, and you’ll apply and share your knowledge as you start to walk in confidence and healing.
Something special about Women’s Refuge is their dedication to helping as many women as possible, even if it’s through a ripple effect. They run an advanced discipleship training course to train women on running their own refuge centers one day. This course lasts for 15 months and includes on the job training and guidance.
