RU Recovery Ministries Review

Located northwest of Chicago in Rockford, Illinois, Reformers Unanimous Recovery Ministries is a residential treatment facility for men and women struggling with alcohol and substance use disorders as well as surface addictions like gambling and pornography. RU Recovery provides a Christian faith-based recovery program that includes individualized care plans, life skills training, education and comprehensive aftercare.

Accommodations

RU offers separate facilities for male and female residents, with each location housing up to 80 clients. Both are renovated nursing homes, complete with shared bedrooms, basic furnishings and comfortable common rooms. Residents enjoy relaxation areas and a peaceful backyard garden ideal for prayer and reflection. To ensure each resident’s total commitment to the program, they are required to maintain employment either with outside employers or the ministry. There are also several comfortable guest rooms available for visitors.

Treatment and Staff

RU treats clients with an array of alcohol and substance use disorders including crack cocaine, marijuana and opioids. While the length of care varies depending on the unique needs of the clients, individuals typically stay for six months. Before beginning treatment, clients undergo an initial mentor session with their interventionist. At this meeting, mentors evaluate the specific areas of concern, which can include behavioral, social, emotional and spiritual needs. From there, a personalized plan is developed to meet the individual’s specific goals. RU employs a unique spiritual approach to treatment that utilizes mentorship, prayer groups, individual sessions and life skills training. As such, 12-step and dual diagnosis support are not part of the programming. Detox is also not available through RU.

Clients engage in daily prayer groups and bi-weekly individual sessions, and are also responsible for daily journaling and reading. Residents are carefully monitored, with house mentors ensuring each client spends time in study, performing chores, resting, recreation and in prayer. Each morning begins with a devotional, and clients attend chapel each weekday. RU also provides evening classes as well as college courses on Saturdays. The facility offers a range of classes including childcare, computer skills, nutrition, basic finance and theology. In addition, clients attend in an addiction class every Friday.

The RU team is led by pastor Dr. Paul Kingsbury and comprised of student interventionists, mentors, housing directors and several stewards.

Extras

There are over 1,000 RU chapters around the world, including churches, prisons and online.

According to its website, RU Recovery maintains an 80% success rate for clients achieving and maintaining sobriety.

In Summary

RU Recovery is a residential treatment option that provides a unique spiritual approach to recovery. The facility offers individualized programming rooted in a powerful Christian message. When not performing house chores and learning new life skills, clients work with mentors, engage in prayer groups and attend chapel to strengthen their relationship with God. For clients seeking a spiritual residential program with a dedicated staff and comprehensive aftercare, RU Recovery is an excellent option.
