Our Facilities
A home environment is important to the recovery of our clients. At Agape, clients find home in three, turn of the 20th Century, Victorian Homes located in the heart of Old North Knoxville. These homes are located within walking distance to numerous job opportunities, public transportation stops, and other necessary amenities.
Each of these historic structures can accomodate eight women in the intensive residential treatment program. These women are provided with shelter, food, clothing, transportation, and all of the counseling and programming necessary for a successful foundation for recovery.
Our Programs
We serve over 100 women a year in our residential treatment program. This is our most intensive program and provides clients all of their basic needs, combined with intensive counseling and training to reach their goals of sobriety.
Our Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is a relatively new program designed to provide an intensive treatment program for those who have a suitable home environment conducive to sobriety. Women in this program have proven the capability of remaining drug and alcohol free in their home environment, but who are not yet capable of sustaining that sobriety without intensive support and counseling.
Treatment at Agape continues long after the program is over, and is just the beginning of a lifelong journey. Upon completion, clients continue to receive care in our After Care program. The After Care Program offers support to clients as they assimilate back into society, and allows for mentoring opportunities with other clients.
Our Growth
Our agency is continually striving to improve our programs and provide better service to our clients. Some of our improvements in the past year include:
- Implementation of the Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP)
- Hiring a Community Development Coordinator
- Acquisition of a new van to transport clients
- Revamping of all marketing materials
If you are interested in helping Agape continue to serve women in need through financial or other support, please do not hesitate to contact us.
