Mission: To improve the quality of life for individuals, families and communities affected by alcohol and drug dependency by providing supportive, educational residential services grounded in the Twelve Step principles of Alcoholics Anonymous which are widely accessible, cost-effective and of the highest quality.
Approach: Experienced staff and volunteers provide guidance and support to those seeking to establish a solid foundation of recovery grounded in the spiritual principles of Alcoholics Anonymous. The Retreat’s philosophy is simple and straightforward; it relies heavily on an integrated community approach.

We introduce people who are motivated for change to those who are living recovery at the highest level, making a life of recovery both attractive and within reach. Our strength comes from our collective wisdom and experience and our success is largely based on our ability to involve the broader recovery community in our mission of helping people recover.
Center for Spiritual Development:
Alcoholism affects us physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. The development of the human spirit is a fundamental element of recovery and critical to a successful and fulfilling life. At The Retreat, we believe that on-going spiritual development is essential to long term sobriety and contentment.
The Retreat's Center for Spiritual Development offers retreats as well as individual and group direction for those seeking to deepen their commitment to spiritual renewal and recovery. Guests explore the basic spiritual principles that give meaning to life and provide the framework for continued development. The Retreat is also available to individuals, Twelve Step groups and others seeking a safe and hospitable place in which to conduct their own retreats.
"If anyone asks, I will tell them that The Retreat offers many positive features, including convenience, affordability, nice facilities, and a peaceful, ambient atmosphere. I will also tell them that none of these features compel me to say positive things about the program.

My compliments revolve around three Ps, People, Philosophy, and Practice."
