The Warriors Center is non-profit 501 (c)(3), tax exempt charity organization that was established in 1999 in Memphis, TN. We are dedicated to assisting men, women, and veterans overcome addiction, homelessness, or other life controlling issues. Motivated by the love of God and neighbor, we promote and facilitate the transition from despondence to independence while meeting such needs as food, shelter, clothing, rehabilitation, education, and job training.
The Warriors Center offers both short and long term residential and outpatient recovery support. Treatment begins with a 28 day Spiritual Bootcamp and is followed by an eleven month New Life Program. The 28 day Spiritual Bootcamp helps residents begin the transformation process and includes: Spiritual Support, Recovery Skills, Relapse Prevention, Pastor Support, and Counseling. The New Life Program is an eleven month residential program set in a military type structured environment. Program components include: Community Service Work, Short Term Mission Trips, Living Skills, Personal Discipline, Work Therapy, and Job Training.
In addition to the crippling costs imposed upon the lives that they directly affect, addiction, homelessness, and mental health disorders carry with them a very real economic and societal cost. From the strain placed on public resources to the deterrent impact upon tourism, investment, and development, these issues exact a profound toll that erodes the fabric of our communities and fosters feelings of fear, insecurity, and mistrust. Sadly, there is a pervasive view that addiction and homelessness are merely moral failings of “weak” or “flawed” individuals. This results in stigmas and labels that only serve to perpetuate these costs by impeding men and women who need help the most from seeking assistance.
At the Warriors Center, we understand that rebuilding our communities starts by empowering the lives of those most marginalized. Men and women who are housed and in recovery are better positioned to rebuild their lives and families, secure stable employment, and contribute to the collective wellbeing of our communities. To that end, the Warriors Center offers a range of programs and services designed to address the needs of men, women, and veterans with dignity as they transition from homelessness and addiction to a more stable, fulfilling, and sustainable life.
