At the City Mission the men’s program is called the New Life Directions Program (NLDP). It is comprised of three phases:
Phase 1
Transformation
The Transformation Phase is a six month discipleship program that seeks to address root causes for addiction through a Biblical approach. In this program, up to six men are challenged through a structured daily schedule. This schedule includes Bible studies, classes, and house chores. This program is based upon Romans 12:1-2. In this portion of the program, it is our simple goal to see men build their lives upon a solid foundation of Christ.
Phase 2
The Transitions
Phase 2 is the training phase of the NLDP. In the Transitions Phase of the program men will be given the opportunity to continue to build upon their solid foundation. It is in Phase 2 that an individual begins to look for work. Through vocational training, men are given the opportunity to prepare for job placement. This portion of the program is very pivotal for an individual as he begins work and starts to save money.
