About S2L Recovery Christian Rehab and Detox

Spring 2 Life Recovery is a non-12-Step, faith-based program for men that promotes Biblical principles and encourages faith to sustain recovery from drug addiction. Clients learn to apply 7 Christian virtues to their lives and are provided a strong, supportive environment through which they can achieve a sustained life of sobriety. S2L Recovery offers detox and long-term residential care.
S2L offers a 6-week residential program (42 days) for initial treatment, in which clients attend group classes to learn the teachings of Christ and apply them to their recovery journey. Medical and clinical staff assess and treat physical and mental needs. A recovery coach is assigned to each participant in the program and will contact family as desired to promote the healing of familial relationships. Clients can enjoy outdoor retreats to a local state park, canoeing, paintball excursions, gym times, and attending church services. Fellowship with other men in the program is also encouraged.
In the second phase of S2L’s program, men are encouraged into further recovery, deeper into Biblical principles, personal freedom, and responsibility. In this stage, attendees learn family and work skills such as financial stewardship, cooking, and leadership as husbands and fathers. Once this stage is complete, men can return home or are eligible for further support in phase 3.
Tucked away in Tennessee on top of Short Mountain, men can overcome their addiction free of judgment while growing in their faith, developing resolve, and increasing self-control. The program is a community-based model and provides immediate aftercare support. Regardless of a client’s personal views, the program offers practical growth models for being a good citizen and developing a loving nature toward yourself and others.
