Free Residential Recovery for Men

Since 1999, The Refuge has helped thousands of men struggling with drugs or alcohol to start a new life.

The long-term results have been incredible.

HOW WE HELP

The Refuge Way

The Refuge provides you a safe place to process, address, and overcome the underlying issues fueling your addictive behavior. According to a third-party survey of our alumni, 66 percent had remained clean, sober, and free from the compulsion to drink or use drugs since completing The Refuge.


The Refuge offers one-on-one and group sessions with licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor Assistants (CDCAs), a workforce development program, and a network of support to prepare you for long-term success.

What is The Refuge?

Founded in 1999, The Refuge has helped thousands of men in our faith-based residential addiction recovery ministry, all at absolutely no cost and with no insurance needed. A man’s journey starts in our 30-Day Discovery Phase on our 138-acre farm in Lancaster, OH. This is a safe, welcoming home where men can focus on positive personal growth. After completing the Discovery Phase, men have the option to continue in The Refuge for up to 12 additional months in our Residential Recovery Program. Here, men continue their personal growth, while also working on rebuilding relationships with friends and family, and also beginning to work with one of our partner employers.

A life free from addiction is just steps away.
