<p><strong>ABOUT TEEN CHALLENGE INTERNATIONAL WISCONSIN – MEN’S CENTER OF HOPE CAMPUS</strong></p> <p>Established in 1958, Teen Challenge International Wisconsin is a <strong>faith-based residential recovery program for adolescents and young adults</strong> with drug and alcohol addictions. The Men’s “Center of Hope” campus is host to a treatment program in which young men partake in a regimen of Christ-based mentoring, classroom-style education, and vocational training. Detox is not available on-site.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p>Teen Challenge aims to cultivate a “culture of responsibility” <strong>rooted in a belief in God and values found in the Bible</strong>. According to its website, most Teen Challenge programs take place in two phases, the Induction phase and the Training phase.</p> <p>In the first three to five months, the Induction phase focuses on <strong>everyday Christian living and education</strong>. Within small group settings, men are introduced to <strong>more than a dozen practical Bible topics and themes</strong> such as “Successful Christian Living,” “Grown Through Failure,” and “Personal Relationships.” Teachers also work with young men on a one-on-one basis to address individual issues and questions.</p> <p>In the Training phase, normally six to 10 months, young men continue learning in a more in-depth manner, and take on <strong>vocational and life skills training</strong> such as vehicle repair, cooking, cleaning, yard maintenance, office work, and more. Literacy, <strong>G.E.D, and other education classes</strong> also provide men with the opportunity to graduate or simply catch up on their formal education. With <strong>daily chores</strong> assigned, graduates of this “Christian boot camp experience” walk away with a fundamental training in caring for themselves and providing for others.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>Teen Challenge is staffed by a non-clinical team of programming, events, and education coordinators.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>To supplement fully packed days of intensive classroom learning and “work detail,” young men are <strong>regularly provided with free time, movie nights, and a weekly soccer game.</strong> Men can also join the choir, which meets weekly to practice prior to performing at annual charity banquets and other events.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>To date, Rehabs.com has received one review from a former client. In addition to giving the facility five out of five stars for the staff’s level of experience and training and for the faith-based programming, L.N.E. found favor with the “caring” and “loving” staff. “I disconnected with the world for restoration and The Lord found me where I was at !!! I'm a miracle! 15 months sober ... I stay plugged in and I'm finally living the life we are all meant to live !” L.N.E wrote.</p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p><strong>At the time of this writing, three loved ones shared mostly positive experiences and outcomes with Rehabs.com.</strong> While Barbara noted the facility’s lack of “professional counselors,” another loved one applauded the “great,” “structured,” faith-based programs as well as the opportunities for participants to pay for their own tuitions. The last reviewer succinctly told Rehabs.com: “Teen Challenge works!”</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>According to its website, Teen Challenge “receives no government funding and operates solely by donations.”</p>
