WELCOME
Welcome to Outreach Ministries! We are a Christian non-profit ministry dedicated to helping men who are having difficulties with addictions and substance abuse.
We are proud of our legacy of honor, respect, and victory in our battle for the hearts of men.
Since 1970, we have pioneered the way in men’s rehabilitation in central Ohio. Using a focused and biblical approach we see men set free and empowered to live their lives as God intended.
OUR MISSION
Our mission is simple, to see men set free from addictions and to live life to the fullest. We do this through a biblical approach and help each person get to the root of what drives them to substance abuse.
HOW WE DO IT
A stay at Outreach is comprised of four phases. We highly suggest our men complete all of them.
Phase One - Three Months
Phase One is a season for building a foundation of understanding of who Christ is, and what that means for you as a believer. Our goal is to help an individual get off the street or out of toxic environments, and into a Christ-centered sober environment.
A 12 week curriculum and readily available mentors/counselors ensures that every resident achieves a full understanding of the foundations of Christian belief.At the end of this phase, an individual may choose to receive a certificate of completion and leave or they can choose to stay and continue in our program.
Phase Two - Six Months
Phase Two is where a Phase One graduate has chosen to continue to stay at Outreach; specifically to pursue Christ on a deeper level. They will continue to follow a similar structure as Phase One with more opportunities for personal growth. Part time work being one of these opportunities.
They will receive an individualized “Game Plan” for restoring personal necessities (such as drivers Licenses, social security card, birth certificate, GED, etc.) and/or financial debt or responsibilities that need attention( court fees, fines, child support, restitution, etc.)At the end of Phase Two an individual will graduate and will be considered an Alumni of the program.
Phase Three - Four Months
Phase Three is when a Phase Two graduate moves into our Phase Three and Four housing and begins to work full time with approved employers. This phase begins to introduce more freedoms and personal responsibilities. Cell phones and pocket money are now permitted and strides are taken to achieve budgeting and financial strategies. The resident will now get established with a church of their choice. Personal goals are set by the individual for different areas of life. Upon the completion of the four months, the goals are evaluated to determine if the individual has made enough effort to enter Phase Four.
Phase Four - Indefinite Time Frame
Phase Four is a continuation of Phase Three. At this point, old goals are reevaluated and new goals are created. Complacency is combated by realistic achievable goals for life. lso an “Exit Plan” is established by the individual to set expectations for what life after Outreach should look like before leaving. This Phase is not rushed. We want to make sure that our residents achieve a comfortable place spirituality, physically, and mentally before they take their next step outside of the accountability of Outreach.
Our history is rich. The victories are many. Please contact us now if we can help you any way.
