Long-Term Recovery for Women

Did you know that long-term addiction recovery programs (over 3 months) are sparse in Alberta, and there are even fewer that accommodate women with children in their care?

Adeara is one of few centres in Canada providing faith-based addiction programming over the course of one year for women with children. We aim to empower women to cultivate lasting recovery that is sustained beyond our program. Through the tools and skills our team provides, women are equipped to carry and grow their recovery for the rest of their lives.

Our unique programming includes:

  • A safe and secure apartment suite for each client
  • Daily recovery-oriented classes and events
  • Relapse prevention
  • Individual counselling and group therapy
  • Support for transition into independent living
  • Parenting supports and family reintegration
  • Life skills development
  • Spiritual development through Christian programming

Donor-Supported Program

Our program runs largely on donations from generous individuals, keeping recovery affordable for women who wouldn’t otherwise be able to access our support. See the difference you helped us make this year.
