First off I recommend keeping an eye on new director and her assistant...... Get intell on what's really going on. Things are different now that Bob former director has left. ( Making very poor decisions that affect people's lives.) It should be Christian based all around the board not just most of these wonderful people that work there, but all of them and should act upon it. God sees EVERYTHING. Also please do 🚫 NOT allow "clients" to play the race card. It's disgusting to accuse good people of that who are not guilty. You should be way more responsible being in charge of such an important program with a lot of special people donating and supporting it to just listen to any cry of malice. Acting upon false accusations due to fear could very well turn out to affect you in the very same way that you originally tried to avoid. Other than that it has been a wonderful experience for me. I had to leave early, however the tools Ive gained and regaining my relationship with God and the love from people like chap Steve, counselors, case worker, and advocates, Some volunteers, and the team helping me change my life. I take the experience with me everyday through life. Thank you Potters House love you.

Terrible place. Doesn't operate on Christian principles. Staff isn't in recovery. They treated my son like a dog and they have no transitional support. DO NOT SEND ANYONE YOU CARE FOR HERE.

Don't go unless you enjoy being in a jail environment. New Beginnings in Christ is much better if you are looking for a "christian" program. Believe me, staffers are anything but "christian" with their own secret lives away from the Atlanta Mission Campus. Just because they work at a treatment facility doesn't mean they are clean.

How much to get help have brother that has a meth problem shooting up has become a norm for him , he finally has agreed he wants help but we don't know wee to look

There is no fees to get into the program. All he has to do (or you can do this on his behalf) is go on line and fill out an application. Go to atlantamission.org and click on "Get Help" and on the next screen, scroll down to "The Potter's House" and he fills out the form. After that, call the number provided 3-4 days after he has applied online. Hope this works out for him. God bless your family.

Do you work on property?

Linda Lilienthal | Oct 23, 2019
David Marshall | Oct 23, 2019

After the classroom and introspection is done, which was 6 months for me, now about 4 months, clients get "real" jobs such as Kubota, Toyota, Wayne's Farm etc. Then they pay rent, save money and prepare for life on their own.

Is this strictly rehab or is it a sober living facility?

Peggy Dudley | Oct 23, 2018
Chuck Dalrymple | Oct 23, 2018

Christ centered rehab that includes sober living after program completion. Saved my life. Not a prison or a compound. It is a campus. There are no bars and you may leave at any time.
