“No matter the situation, keep your faith strong.” These words from a recent graduate of Alpha at the Reception and Treatment Center highlight the faith, hope and inspiration this program brings. Alpha is an international sixteen-week program that provides a space for honest and judgment-free conversations about life and faith. Starting in February, two Alpha cohorts will be offered simultaneously – one in Spanish and one in English. We’re thankful for the dedicated Alpha volunteers who bring this transformative program to our facilities! #NDCSEvents #BuildYourFutureRead more
