Most of our residents have struggled with drug addiction, abusive relationships, and incarceration. Almost all have had their children removed, lost relationship with their family, or have no family at all.
​
While at Marantha the ladies will not only acquire tools to stay sober, but learn life skills that will help them navigate a life addiction free.
Most importantly, each resident in the program will attend church , Bible studies, and gain spiritual tools. We pray that each lady will strengthen and grow in their relationship with Jesus- which we believe is the solid foundation in which a life of freedom and sobriety can stand on successfully.
After completing blackout and the 4 phases of the program , a Maranatha graduate will have attended, completed, and submitted:
-
200+ Hours of life skills training
-
200+ Hours of recovery classes
-
22+ Hours of counseling
-
2500+ Pages of phase work
-
52+ Weekly Phase appointments
-
15+ Drug tests

600+ hours of community service
-
300+ hours of bible study
-
100+ church services
Blackout
At intake the resident is taught the rules while in the program, given her first packet of phase work and a run down of what’s required each phase. She is taken to health appointments, Social Security office, DMV, DHS and meets her counselor. She will also attend classes, recovery meetings and be introduced to their new church home for the duration of the program, The Bridge Community Church.
​
Monthly progress reports are sent to all concerned judges, probation officers and DCS caseworkers.
Phases 1 - 4
