Our Program

Cross Style Life Recovery Program’s focus is aimed towards changing and reconstructing lives. The program is one year, and culminates with a graduation ceremony as residents transition into a healthy and responsible lifestyle. We make sure our residents are empowered by creating opportunities for individuals and entire communities. Accommodations include housing and highly structured programming for Men, Women, and also Married Couples.

Program

  • First things first – you need a job, and we’ll help you find one. Within the first week, we help our residents get the documents they need to gain full-time employment. We then help them to get placed in a first shift position, and provide daily rides to and from work.

  • Our residents all live within walking distance from one another in a group of single, duplex, and multi-family homes in Lebanon, Tennessee. We take great pride in the cleanliness of our housing facilities, and expect everyone in the program to do their part in maintaining the upkeep and hospitality of our living spaces.

  • Our highly structured recovery program provides a holistic approach to those looking to overcome all types of addictions through the accountability, teaching, and mentorship of a Christian community. The weekly schedule includes:

    Thursday: Church

    Friday: No programming
