Who We Are
Adult & Teen Challenge of Texas is a nonprofit organization providing long-term, Christian faith-based, residential programs for men, women, and teens across Texas.
We offer a chance to start over, become a new person, live a godly life, and find freedom through a restored purpose and an eternal hope.
What Makes Us Different
Transformation- Not Treatment
Our focus on Christ, or the “Jesus Factor”, separates us from traditional recovery centers. A restored relationship with God can transform those who suffer from addiction into vibrant, free, and sober followers of the Lord.
Discipleship and Evangelism
Our curriculum and community are based on God’s Word—the Bible. Our practical Bible-based courses help the transition from substance abuse to a life of freedom in Christ. We introduce students to God’s love, initiate the discipleship process, and train them to demonstrate God’s love to others.
Long-Term Residential Program
Our programs last between 12-18 months. This time frame provides opportunity for adults and teens to confront their destructive choices, self-sabotaging behavior, and unhealthy views and replace them with the truth found in God’s Word.
A Holistic Approach
Addiction starts as a way to fulfill a void that only God can fill and can damage more than just the body. Because of this, our program has built a holistic approach that considers all aspects of our students’ lives. By applying biblical principles, students become mentally sound, emotionally balanced, physically well, and spiritually alive.
