In the United States 21.1 million people are in need of specialty treatment for drug and alcohol addiction. The age groups affected include teens to older adults. Each addict impacts an average of five other people.

Our approach is to deal in a holistic fashion with each individual. This allows us to look beyond the symptomatic issue of drug and alcohol abuse and to confront issues of past abuse, alienation, poor coping skills, poor education and work habits and self esteem.

WHAT IS 180 MINISTRIES?

180 Ministries serves men 18 years old and older who deal with a variety of drug and alcohol related issues. They come from Colorado and as far away as Florida. Some have legal issues that are facing them, pushing them to a crisis point of confronting their life style.

Various ethnic and economic groups make up the student group at a particular time.
These individuals need a structure that enables them to lead productive and fulfilling lives.

HOW DOES THE PROGRAM WORK?
