About Mission Gate Ministry After Care Program

Mission Gate Ministry is a prison ministry for adults in Missouri. They counsel people who are in jail or prison, helping them turn from a life of crime to a healthy, Christ-centered future. They also operate a residential, nine month aftercare program for recently released clients out in Chesterfield.

I like that this program offers different residential units for men and women. This allows you to recover in a distraction free environment. The goal of your treatment is to help you break free of your struggles, including addiction, so you can be reunited with your family and become a productive member of your community.

During your stay here, you’ll follow a unique treatment plan tailored to your needs and recovery goals. Some of the services they offer include family counseling, parenting classes, spiritual mentoring, life skills training and 12 Step programming. In addition, they also integrate faith into nearly every aspect of your plan. You’ll be expected to participate in on campus Bible studies to learn more about how Christ can help you find true, lifelong healing.

A unique feature of their facilities is the number of recreational activities available. For example, the women’s unit has a large playground and a lake for children who’re staying with their mothers. There are also regular outings, events and celebrations to foster a sense of community.

One past client says she’s been sober for five years thanks to this program and they continue to reach out and check on her. Several others say it’s a life changing ministry and they’re grateful for the care they received here.

I believe that it started out good. Now I believe it has turned into a money grab. Need aren't met. They have fundraiser, donations, the girls pay rent and cleaning supplies. Yet they seem to never be able to meet the girls needs. None of the rules are enforces and most of the time the house is chaos.

This place is amazing and truly transforms lives. I witnessed it first hand with my cousin Matt. They reach the least and the last. The ones that most in society has given up on. They show them a l other way to live, and most importantly how to honor God! Some sober living places, and second chance places are a money grab, but I can honestly say Rick and Trish is the real deal! God is using them both as a vessel to love those who feel hopeless.

Other Forms of Payment

Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

Medicare is a federal program that provides health insurance for those 65 and older. It also serves people under 65 with chronic and disabling health challenges. To use Medicare for addiction treatment you need to find a program that accepts Medicare and is in network with your plan. Out of pocket costs and preauthorization requirements vary, so always check with your provider.

Medicaid is a state based program that helps lower-income individuals and families pay for healthcare. Medicaid covers addiction treatment so those enrolled can use their coverage to pay for rehab. When a program accepts Medicaid the client often pays very little or nothing out of their own pocket.

Addiction Treatments

Levels of Care

outpatient iconOutpatient
Outpatient rehab enables clients to continue to work, attend school, or reside at home while undergoing treatment, including addiction counseling and recovery-focused life skills training. Evening, night, and weekend sessions are available at many facilities to ensure continuous access to care on the client's schedule. Many centers also offer ancillary services, such as career coaching and peer mentoring, to promote clients' sustained recovery and community integration. Higher-level outpatient treatment, including intensive outpatient (IOP) care, is also widely available.
aftercare iconAftercare Support
Rehab aftercare programs offer continuing care for clients in the maintenance phase of recovery and are designed to evolve over time. Outpatient treatment is generally categorized as drug rehab aftercare, but many clients continue to receive services after being discharged from formal care. These services are customized to clients' unique recovery goals, but typically include medical, mental health, and social services. Clients' case manager and recovery team play a key role in developing the client's care plan.

Treatments

Many of those suffering from addiction also suffer from mental or emotional illnesses like schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, depression, or anxiety disorders. Rehab and other substance abuse facilities treating those with a dual diagnosis or co-occurring disorder administer psychiatric treatment to address the person's mental health issue in addition to drug and alcohol rehabilitation.

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.

Programs

Adult Program
Adult rehab programs include therapies tailored to each client's specific needs, goals, and recovery progress. They are tailored to the specific challenges adult clients may face, including family and work pressures and commitments. From inpatient and residential treatment to various levels of outpatient services, there are many options available. Some facilities also help adults work through co-occurring conditions, like anxiety, that can accompany addiction.

Program For Men
Men face specific challenges and concerns when seeking addiction treatment. Gender-specific recovery programs help them tackle these issues head-on in an environment that's focused, targeted, and distraction-free. It also gives them the opportunity to connect with and learn from other men who have been through a similar journey and can offer support for the next step.
program-for-women thumbnail image
Program For Women
Rehabs for women provide a safe, nurturing space for female clients to heal. These treatment programs consider the specific obstacles that women can face during recovery and place a special emphasis on mental, social, physical, and reproductive health. They explore how each woman's experience has shaped the trajectory of their substance use, addressing issues such as sexual abuse and past trauma.

Clinical Services

Whether a marriage or other committed relationship, an intimate partnership is one of the most important aspects of a person's life. Drug and alcohol addiction affects both members of a couple in deep and meaningful ways, as does rehab and recovery. Couples therapy and other couples-focused treatment programs are significant parts of exploring triggers of addiction, as well as learning how to build healthy patterns to support ongoing sobriety.

Research clearly demonstrates that recovery is far more successful and sustainable when loved ones like family members participate in rehab and substance abuse treatment. Genetic factors may be at play when it comes to drug and alcohol addiction, as well as mental health issues. Family dynamics often play a critical role in addiction triggers, and if properly educated, family members can be a strong source of support when it comes to rehabilitation.

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 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 in and out of rehabilitation and after care programs for years. With the help of God and the design/structure of Mission Gate, I am in recovery for almost 5 years now. Mission Gate never left me behind once I graduated, they still continue to reach out to me. Over and over they have been there. I can t say enough about Mission Gate. Staff is top notch too.

Rick and Trish Mathes are two of my favorite people. I remember hearing Rick on their radio prison ministry in 1993 and realized that only by God s grace that I was not behind bars, because I had not been caught or I had been let off easily when I did get caught.God put it on my heart to contribute that November Saturday morning to their ministry and I still contribute to this day. I believe in their ministry, because I believe Jesus is faithful to complete a good work He has started in us until His return.Great work to all involved.God blessJim Pemberton
