About Our Programs

Christ-centered recovery to help men and women overcome life-controlling addictions.

Lifeline Recovery Center serves men and women with life-controlling addictions in Paducah, Kentucky

Men and women with addiction often struggle with societal problems, such as finding meaningful employment, living with broken families, and sometimes engaging in criminal behavior. Unfortunately, these circumstances may worsen the cycle of wounding, suppression, addiction, and destruction. Because of this, our program seeks to break the cycle for men and women, and ultimately, set them on a path to wholeness.

Lifeline’s trained staff and counselors, along with volunteers, provide a supportive environment through a structured learning program that includes volunteering in the community, employment when possible and licensed counseling sessions. The program helps clients not only gain victory over their addiction, but often leads to improved conditions in their marriage, family, and other relationships.

New clients are accepted throughout the year to begin the long-term program, featuring different levels of care for Recovery. Clients must stay in campus housing throughout the duration of the program. During the last 16-week phase, clients must complete 12 aftercare meetings and attend two additional outside meetings and two church services each week. 

Classes include: Group Therapy, Exercise class, AA & Celebrate Recovery, the 12-step program; Peer Support Groups, Jobs for Life, Christian living, parenting, anger management, financial peace and aftercare.

The journey to restoration is not easy or short, but at Lifeline, we see people making progress every day to achieve just that.

How much does the program cost?

We accept insurance for the first 60-90 days. Once a client advances into the second phase, the client will be employed and will pay $2,400, including meals, housing, instruction, and support.
