ABOUT CHARLOTTE RESCUE MISSION – REBOUND
Charlotte Rescue Mission is a private, non-profit organization based in Charlotte, N.C. It offers comprehensive, long-term treatment for individuals struggling with chemical dependency. Rebound, a men’s-only program of Charlotte Rescue Mission, is focused on sustained sobriety and self-sufficiency. To be admitted, clients must commit to at least 120 days of residential treatment, have abused substances within 30 days prior to admittance, and pass an initial drug screening upon intake. Rebound does not provide on-site detoxification services.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
Rebound has a unique intake process where clients must call themselves to speak with an intake coordinator. The facility believes that the first step of recovery is for the individual to express their desire to change. Through this initial phone call, clinicians determine if the Rebound program is appropriate. Although the residential program is based on the practices of 12-Step, the faith-based program incorporates the 12-step model of recovery within the context of Christian principles and philosophies. Clients participate in Bible study classes, worship services, spiritual classes, as well as attend 12-step meetings and perform “step-work.”
The 120-day program consists of two phases. The first 30 days involve intensive counseling, 12-step work, and educational classes. After completing the initial 30 days, the following 90 days of treatment include training and instruction to promote self-sufficiency upon discharge. The resident continues to participate in individual therapy, group counseling, and educational classes. Additionally, clients receive vocational and life skills training, as well as educational development classes.
After completing the 120-day program, clients have the option to continue into a 90-day extended care program for ongoing life skills development and vocational training or transition into Rebound’s sober living facility. While residing in the halfway house, clients are required to attend 12-step meetings, participate in group counseling sessions, attend church, and obtain employment.

Rebound is led by a program director and employs a team of licensed substance abuse counselors, nurses, and facility technicians. The facility is also supported by volunteers who may be clergy or individuals familiar with the recovery process and 12-Step.
