Today marks 6 incredible years of God’s faithfulness at Adult & Teen Challenge of Western Wisconsin! 🙌

Over the years, we’ve seen countless lives transformed, chains broken, families restored, and hearts renewed through the power of Christ.

This journey wouldn’t be possible without the support of our amazing staff, volunteers, donors, and community who walk alongside us every step of the way. Thank you for believing in freedom, redemption, and second chances. 🌿

Here’s to many more years of walking together in hope and purpose. One step, one prayer, one life at a time.

🎉 BIG NEWS! 🎉

We’re celebrating God’s faithfulness and the amazing generosity of our community! Our recent Drive the Road to Recovery fundraiser event raised over $300,000 to support women in recovery. Chains of addiction are breaking and true freedom is being found.

This is more than a number — it’s lives changed, families restored, and hope renewed through the power of Jesus Christ. ❤️

“Now to Him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to His power that is at work within us.”
— Ephesians 3:20

Thank you to everyone who prayed, gave, and has stood with us in this mission. Together, we’re helping women find freedom from addiction and a new life in Christ.

Looking for a couple amazing women to join our team 🥰

It's been a minute but guess what? It's Testimony Tuesday!! Meet Sam. She has been in the program for 4 months and here is what she had to say:

Q: What was your life like before ATCWW? What is your life like now?
A: I was living a desolate life, every day was full of despair. I was a dead (wo)man walking. I now have meaning to my life and a purpose.
Q: How have you seen God moving in your life since coming into the program?
A: My whole perspective on life has changed. I have never felt more stable than I do now. I have a long journey in front of me and being here at ATCWW has helped me gain a relationship like no other with Jesus Christ. Nothing is impossible with HIm.
Q: What has been one of the hardest parts about coming into the program?
A: To forgive myself and forgive people from my past, which is something I have to choose to do daily, over and over again.
Q: What would you say to someone who was considering coming into the program?
A: I do not understand at all the mystery of GRACE. Only that it meets us were we are, but does not leave us where it found us. Grace is available for you too, if you choose to receive it. You are worth it!
