Mission Statement: Rochester ATC exists for individuals to experience freedom from addiction, by making disciples and helping them KNOW Christ, GROW in Christ, SERVE Christ, and SHARE what Christ has done for them.
Life Transformation
Rochester Adult & Teen Challenge is a faith-based solution for the drug epidemic. One of the major differences between traditional recovery programs and our center is our emphasis on Christian values and cultivating a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It is this central, spiritual dynamic upon which all aspects of the Adult & Teen Challenge programs are built.
Discipleship & Evangelism
This is a residential, discipleship program. Our program encompasses every aspect of life. It offers non-medical methods, such as: moral guidance, counseling, and biblical principles to freedom from life-controlling issues. Through our Bible-based curriculum, students learn how to apply God’s Word to their lives. They also learn to recognize the Holy Spirit’s work in their lives, invite God to help them overcome their life-controlling issues, and become more like Christ.
Long-Term Residential Program
Our Rochester facility provides 12 months of care and support. The benefits of our long-term residential, discipleship program are many. The students enter a loving, supportive, Christian community and are mentored by others who have walked the same path to freedom. They are given the opportunity to cultivate the life practice of personal prayer, daily devotions and so much more.
“Hope lives here, freedom is found here,
and changed lives leave here.”
