A Safe Haven for Lasting Recovery

Located in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Ruth & Naomi’s Mission offers a faith-based addiction recovery program that provides a safe haven for individuals seeking freedom from addiction. Rooted in Christian principles, our residential recovery programs combine compassionate care, professional support, and practical tools for healing.

We believe in the power of faith, community, and accountability to support lasting recovery and life transformation.

A Long-Term Residential Recovery Journey

Our programs are designed to meet individuals where they are and walk alongside them throughout their recovery journey. Participants commit to a minimum one-year residential stay, with the option to continue into a second year focused on reintegration and transition back into the community.

Men’s and Women’s Recovery Programs

We offer both men’s and women’s addiction recovery programs, each built around structured daily routines. These include group classes, individual coaching, life skills development, outdoor activities, and guidance from trained professionals.

Later this year, our women’s program will be located at Sparrow House, a dedicated facility designed to provide expanded support, more space, and a nurturing environment for women seeking lasting recovery.

A core component of our recovery approach is the Genesis Process, which focuses on relapse prevention, personal responsibility, and long-term change. Many of our staff are trained Genesis Counsellors, and each participant will complete the Relapse Prevention Genesis Process with a one-on-one counsellor during the later stages of their first year.
