  • A faith-based organization. We are committed to being accountably aligned in Christian faith, as we consider spiritual development to be an important part of addiction recovery.
  • Reconnecting families.We are one of few addiction recovery centers in Canada that accepts both women and their children, and offer supportive care to keep families together.
  • An accredited recovery centre. Our programming is research-informed and is designed to treat all elements of addiction from a bio-psycho-social-spiritual perspective.
