About Great Lakes Adult and Teen Challenge - Women’s Robby Dawson Home
Adult and Teen Challenge Great Lakes (ATCGL) is a Christian Discipleship program for women with drug and alcohol addictions. The program provides a faith-based curriculum with a 1-year commitment to progressing through the 4 levels of care. Adult and Teen Challenge focuses on spiritual, emotional, and physical healing, and offers social and educational training to prepare women for life post-addiction. The treatment center is operated as a nonprofit, so fees are very low. The focus is on permanent recovery, no matter how long it takes.
4 Levels of Care
Level 1 (14 weeks): Recovery Residents attend classes that emphasize recognizing and changing destructive thoughts and beliefs, understanding the basic needs they were attempting to fulfill through substance use, and learning coping skills to combat cravings.
Level 2 (12 weeks): Renewal Residents participate in the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual work that it takes to heal the wounds that are often at the root of addiction.
Level 3 (12 weeks): Restoration and Healing Residents learn more about purpose in life, and how to enter into a future that is free from substances. This phase helps establish a solid foundation for the future, helping residents uncover their unique gifts and talents.
Level 4 (12 weeks): Transition Residents begin taking practical steps toward putting what they’ve learned into action. Residents find employment and housing, learn how to manage their time and resources, and start to become leaders who give back to their community.
