About City Gospel Mission

City Gospel Mission is a religious based organization in Cincinnati, Ohio. They provide Christian-centered life transformation to the socially disadvantaged. These include the homeless, the incarcerated and those affected by behavioral conditions like substance use disorders. Their residential addiction recovery programs equip you with the tools and support needed to rebuild your life with a sense of purpose.

They offer separate faith-based residential programs for men and women. The men’s program is called Exodus and the women’s program is Courage to Change. These programs serve not only those affected by substance abuse but also individuals facing repeated incarceration and homelessness. They also support those dealing with stabilized mental health conditions.

Both programs adopt essentially the same recovery approach. The program lasts 12 to 24 months depending on your goals and personalized treatment plans. Recovery starts with 45 to 60 days of orientation. This involves familiarizing yourself with the structure, setting goals and building a foundation for recovery. Typically their case manager and life coach will assist you with setting goals.

After orientation, you’re encouraged to make 60 to 120-day commitments toward completing your individualized plan. Their recovery approach promotes accountability and responsibility in a supportive environment. Emphasis is on spiritual development, inner healing and health and wellness. Services also include life skill development, job readiness training and personalized case management. This fosters lasting recovery.

Upon graduation, you’re relocated to their transitional apartment for aftercare support. This facility offers independent living with supportive services. This includes counseling, mentoring and group meetings. This additional support helps you maintain sobriety and learn independent living as you prepare to reintegrate into the community.

Medical briefcase icon Levels of Care

bed-front iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.

people-group iconIntervention Services

Intervention services helps family or friends of addicts stage an intervention, which is a meeting in which loved ones share their concerns and attempt to get an addict into treatment. Professional intervention specialists can help loved ones organize, gather, and communicate with an addict. They can guide intervention participants in describing the damage the addict's behavior is causing and that outside help is necessary to address the addiction. The ideal outcome of an intervention is for the addict to go to rehab and get the help they need.

house iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

book-medical icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

house-medical iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

Heart icon Treatment

book iconAlcoholism

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

prescription iconDrug Addiction

Drug rehab in Ohio provides comprehensive treatment to address the physical and psychological needs of those struggling with substance use disorders. This may involve inpatient and/or outpatient care.

file-medical iconMental Health and Substance Abuse

A combined mental health and substance abuse rehab has the staff and resources available to handle individuals with both mental health and substance abuse issues. It can be challenging to determine where a specific symptom stems from (a mental health issue or an issue related to substance abuse), so mental health and substance abuse professionals are helpful in detangling symptoms and keeping treatment on track.

prescription-bottle-pill iconOpioid Addiction

Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.

Group Therapy

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.

Individual Therapy

In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.

Life Skills

Life skills trainings involve all the skills a person must have in order to function successfully in the world. These include time management, career guidance, money management, and effective communication. Truly successful addiction recovery is based on the ability to not only live substance-free, but to thrive. Life skills teaches the practical necessities of functioning in society, which sets clients up for success in life, and therefore sobriety.

I was there back in 2014 and I started at the old shelter for a week before they moved to the new shelter and I did everything I was supposed to I also became a paid volunteer there learning how to do intakes and answering phones and I started going to crossroads in Oakley as a paid volunteer I went through jobs plus and graduated I helped teach a class and I went through city link and graduated from there and after a year and a half they told me I was there to long and I had to leave with out them helping me once to find a place to live if it was not for two staff members who was sharing the cost of rent in a house and asked me to join them I would have been living on the street I m lost my apartment and in need of a place within a few days but why should I go back and trust them again after what happened to me the first time.Because of bad housing and employment I m unfortunately back at this place they say they have changed they haven t change much. Some people feel they are being treated like prisoners there s still a lot of people not following rules and a lot of staff are to afraid to ask people to leave some rules need to to be strictly enforced and others can possibly give more grace on. Some staff there customer service skills are not there and not sure why they still have there jobs I still say they care more about profit then people. Yes I understand they run on donations it s there body language that makes me to believe that especially being in here once before and not trusting them even now I still don t trust them.

If I could give minus 10 I would!! And I am not homeless! Stepped in the dr today February 18,2024. At 6:30 pm, was looking for a shelter from the wind and cold as I just needed to catch a bus. They have a metal detector at the door, but watching every one go left before the detector, I wonder what items went in! But the two fellas behind the window wouldn't allow me to sit in for 20 minutes out of the cold!

I hated the food there. The women's facility was really like the Oxygen reality TV series Bad Girls Club with senior citizens acting like overgrown children. I hearby dub this place as the Bad Girls Club: Senior Edition. The food is not edible for the classy people, they make you just eat anything. I will never recommend this place to anybody in need for a place to stay. I suggest you get what you need elsewhere.

A few years back they allowed one of there staff members to assault me with a titanium bat and as a result had to have brain surgery and was left homeless and face distorted while I recovered!!! They fired the guy before I got out the hospital, had the detective close the case before even taking a statement from me and denied me all footage to fight my case against them. They covered everything up in a matter of a few days while I was laying in a hospital bed. Truly has been a rough ride but I haven't forgotten City Gospel !!!
