Our Programs

Currently, New York Adult & Teen Challenge has three Men’s Programs located in: Buffalo, Syracuse and Rochester, and one Women’s Program located in Syracuse.

Here at New York Adult & Teen Challenge, our culture represents diverse backgrounds, upbringings and demographics. We have created a program designed to cater to these differences and we believe that through learning practical life skills, positive character qualities and building healthy relationships, our residents will learn how to walk in their newfound sobriety.Things take time! Many of our residents will express that their addiction has spanned many years, and sometimes even decades. While a positive mindset is important, we believe that residents must consider the time and patience is takes to establish healthy habits. Residents who have the greatest success are those who desire to become aware of the decisions that led them into their life-controlling issues, acknowledge them, and address them in an environment full of healthy conflict.

Jesus gave us a successful model that works! Our curriculum is centered around the life and works of Jesus Christ. Born in a world full of adversity and opposition, he lived a blameless life and serves as the perfect role model in the life of a Christian. Relating to the same life experiences we face, he left us with a guide for overcoming the obstacles in our daily lives and experiencing his promise of an abundant life set free from the power of drugs and alcohol.

Our primary focus is to help each resident discover their God-given purpose and to help launch them into the next stage of their life upon their graduation of our program.
