Hope For Life

Teen Challenge of the Upper Cumberland offers its faith-based Hope for Life non-residential classes to the community in 3 local counties. The non-residential program for those dealing with life-controlling problems is a twenty-four week program and includes a series of group classes, which deal with identifying life-controlling issues, breaking free from hindrances, and twelve steps of recovery. Hope for Life is structured similar to a Low-Intensity Outpatient program and uses the group dynamics and accountability model. The Hope for Life groups, led by trained facilitators, use Living Free curriculum from Turning Point ministries. Participants can start the 24 week program at any weekly meeting location.

Hope for Life is a Christ-centered program for the community that offers non-residential help for anyone struggling with a life-controlling problem like drug addiction, alcoholism, sexual addiction, gambling, anger or workaholism. The curriculum supports a person’s desire to maintain a life free of life-controlling problems and helps a person develop roots and steadfastness in Christ so that one can confidently master the problems faced in daily living.

These classes are open to all adults and the cost for the 6 month program is $40. Preregistration is not required. For more information, call Teen Challenge of the Upper Cumberland at 888-688-0470.
