Program accomplishments

  • THE ADULT & TEEN CHALLENGE MID-SOUTH (ATCM) PROGRAM IS DESIGNED FOR THOSE WHO NEED RESIDENTIAL RECOVERY IN ORDER TO DEAL WITH LIFE-CONTROLLING ADDICTIONS. PROGRAMS INCLUDE BIBLE STUDY, CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT, COUNSELING, CHRISTIAN GROWTH, ACADEMIC AND VOCATIONAL IMPROVEMENT. DUE TO THE VERY NATURE OF ADDICTION, MOST ADDICTS ARE TURNED OUT BY FAMILY MEMBERS WHO ARE EXHAUSTED, ARE UNABLE TO WORK, AND MAY COME FROM THE JUDICIAL SYSTEM. THEY COME TO ATCM INDIGENT AND UNABLE TO PAY ANY PART OF THE LOW FEES WE LIST. IT IS BECAUSE OF THE DONORS, FOUNDATIONS AND CORPORATIONS WHO BELIEVE IN THE WORK OF ATCM THAT THE MINISTRY IS ABLE TO CONTINUE.
