Life Skills Program at Abba House
While addiction and mental health issues are serious and often life-threatening, they are not the only impediments to a successful life that women graduating from Abba House face. We are a therapeutic community and have set a goal of ensuring that every woman at Abba House is made completely functional in every area of her life. In keeping with this focus the title of our core curriculum is “Being Made Whole.”
