\n\t\t\tProvidence days are full of great variability & planned by our full-time, in house case manager<\/span>\n\t\t<\/h2>\n
\n
<\/div>\n <\/div>\n \t\t\t\t
\n\t\tOur residents\u2019 days are individualized and depend upon their responsibilities: school, work, and \u2013 most importantly \u2013 recovery commitments.<\/span>\n\t\t<\/h6>\n\t\t<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”50px”][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n
Providence men are rich with the support of our supportive community.<\/h5>\n

We believe in being a community that supports our most vulnerable.<\/h5>\n

We also believe in supporting our communities struggling adolescents. Providence men may speak about recovery at schools, treatment programs and community programming when requested and appropriate. We are role models for a vibrant, recovery lifestyle.<\/p>\n

Every resident will arrange their schedule for the upcoming week with the case manager, and will be held accountable to following the goals established for themselves, including wake-up times, number of meetings attended, community service hours, work hours, educational commitments (including homework and tutoring) house chores, exercise, fellowship activities, free time and fun. In the spirit of staying open, willing and teachable, residents in their first months at Providence are required to attend four peer support meetings each week, which may include AA, Smart Recovery, 7 Challenges, NA or Refuge Recovery. Residents who are willing to explore AA are encouraged to secure a sponsor within the first 30-60 days.<\/p>\n
