Light of Life Ministries, Inc.

A component of the Recovery Program, Education and Employment provides men and women access to job resources, on-site health education, group activities, tutoring in core subjects, computer classes, skills assessment and training, and career opportunities through a partnership with Bethlehem Haven.

Centered on faith-based principles, various aspects of addiction recovery include the 12 Step program--with emphasis on the first three steps--Recovery bibles, relapse prevention counseling, behavior and cognitive skills and individual and group counseling.

Single mothers and their children whose lives have been adversely affected by substance addiction, homelessness, poverty and abuse receive off-site housing, case management, counseling and career services in Light of Life's Women and Children's Program. Initially, families are stabilized through rental assistance, food, clothing and household needs. This long-term program (12-18 months) provides 20 hours per week of addiction, parenting and life skills counseling, household management, family therapy, education and career training, child care and other services designed to reunite and rebuild strong family units. Up to 30 families are served through this program at any given time.

Through its After-Care and Mentoring program, Light of Life provides both men and women graduates with a comprehensive network to help ensure their lifelong recoveries. Graduates enjoy opportunities to manage/serve on an alumni board, engage in social activities, and have access to mentoring and other supportive services.
