Our Programs

The Life Transformation Program

The Life Transition Program (LTP) supports residents working on recovery in their desire to live a completely sober and addiction-free life. Residents live in our facility for 10-12 months, during which time they learn tools to help them flourish spiritually, financially, emotionally, and socially.

The foundation of the recovery program is community. Residents attend regular meetings with a case manager, attend meetings, and work through the 12-step process with a sponsor. A variety of other recovery and spiritual classes are also offered every day. Jesus House partners with North Care, Red Rock and other community agencies to assist with any mental health or medication needs.

WHAT TO EXPECT

SAFETY, HEALING, & HOPE

The first six months of the recovery program are about safety, healing, and new hope. Many residents have just come from painful or traumatizing circumstances, so our aim is to provide a safe environment to take a breath and allow the healing process to begin.

While at Jesus House, residents spend 4-6 hours a day doing different work therapy roles, including work in the warehouse, helping in the kitchen, cleaning the Jesus House residence, working at the receptionist desk, or assisting in security. During this early time at Jesus House, residents begin to build routines, grow in service to the community and oneself, and develop a variety of lifestyle habits that allow the healing process to begin.

GROWTH, LEARNING, & TRAINING

After six months, the program is all about exciting new growth, education, and training with the goal of entirely transforming the lives of our residents and helping them return to society. Working with a career transition specialist will be a big part of this phase, helping residents develop lifelong tools to continue their success. This phase will grow professional skills and includes helping our residents secure employment opportunities.

The Daily Food Line

Each day Jesus House serves meals to any individual experiencing homelessness or hunger. Anyone who comes to Jesus House between 4:00 pm and 5:00 p.m. can receive a meal. There are no questions asked.

The Food Basket Program

Community members who have a need for assistance with food can come to Jesus House Wednesday mornings. We begin serving at 8:00 and provide food baskets until we run out of food. Each basket usually contains enough food to provide meals for a family of 4 for 3-4 days, and includes fresh produce, meat, and dairy products.

To receive a basket, please arrive in a vehicle. We recommend coming earlier than 8:00 am as some individuals are here as early as 7:00 am to secure their spot in line.
