Abbotsford Women's Centre

The Abbotsford Women's Centre is a residential 1 year faith-based addiction recovery and restoration program for women aged 19+. We have capacity for 9 women. We are well recognized and supported by our municipal government and community. Provincially, we have 3 centres - 2 for men (Okanagan and Chilliwack) and 1 for women (Abbotsford). Our program is holistic in nature addressing physical, mental, social and spiritual needs. Life skills and community engagement are valued aspects. We also offer various non-residential support groups to the community. We recognize the immense need and gap of care for women that have children. As such, we are expanding through the creation of a new Women's & Children's Centre in the Okanagan, which will offer our 1 year program to 20 women and their children. Adult & Teen Challenge was established in 1958 and currently has 1400 centres in 125 countries,and growing. It has the largest addiction recovery footprint in the world. Thank you for considering a donation to the valued community cause of caring for vulnerable women. Our desire is to Put Hope Within Reach.
