Graduates of the faith-based "Another Chance Ministry" are talking about their deliverance from addiction. The men's addiction recovery program is operated through Zion Baptist Church in Chillicothe, but has helped more than 170 men over the last five years.
-
Those who have been served by the privately funded and operated program have included local men in the areas of Ross, Fayette, Highland, Brown, Pike, Pickaway counties and Columbus.
-
The program emphasizes the need for each individual to connect their lives with God. Statistics are showing that faith-based substance abuse recovery programs have one of the higher long-term success rates of keeping addicts clean.
-
Another Chance Ministry currently operates three men's residential recovery homes and hopes to add a women's program within the year.
