VISION: We will assist men and women who in the past have struggled with life's stumbling blocks to become clean, sober, honest, and responsible spouses, parents, brothers, sisters, sons and daughters. We will turn today's ex-offenders, addicts and alcoholics into tomorrow's mentors, leaders, and teachers, so that the brokenness can be broken and the living can begin. MISSION STATEMENT: To provide
safe, clean, caring facilities in which men and women can grow in their individuality and spirituality so that they can build a solid foundation on which to establish their productive, meaningful lives. To teach them to perform well in life within expanding boundaries and the guidelines of the 12 step programs and Godly discipline. To help them develop a well-rounded life plan so that they can step confidently into a world that before may have baffled them. GOAL: We will reduce the recidivism rate for prisons and rehabilitation centers by transforming our members into community leaders while giving them the ability to affect change in others from similar situations. With Bible studies, devotionals, and counseling we will help men and women gain understanding of Christian doctrine, rebuild family relationships, discover their gifts, and develop their Clarity of Purpose. VALUES: *We believe in a total transformation of the Mind, Body, and Spirit through the power of Jesus Christ and the blood He shed. *Trust God, help other people, and ALWAYS do what you say you'll do. * Be part of the solution, not the problem. * Family first. The children truly are our future. S.T.A.R.S. believes in a holistic, faith-based approach to recovery and reintegration. Our residential re-entry program offering job readiness training, life skills training, nutrition education, exercise development, and Christian discipleship will help men and women not only find their purpose and calling, but to actually realize the change involved i that purpose.
