_The
Better Way is a program designed to help broken people help
themselves
by reaching into the poverty of the soul, which is the root of
all human failure. By addressing their innermost gifts and capabilities,
as well as their faulty thinking and poor choices, the participants
become enabled to recover their self-respect, personal worth
and
dignity. They begin to reclaim their individual dreams and rediscover
their ability to set and achieve their goals. Through self-discovery
and the validation that comes from unconditional acceptance regardless
of past mistakes, they develop a deep understanding that they
not
only have the freedom to exercise their rights, but also a personal
responsibility for their own choices, which chart the course
for
their future and facilitate the realization of their true possibilities.
--The Better Way
philosophy is to help people OUT of their POVERTY rather than simply helping them in their poverty. This can be accomplished for a fraction of the cost of continuing to help them in their poverty. The end result is to move them into the role of becoming responsible and productive citizens. |
People are not handpicked to attend THE
BETTER WAY program. Anyone who wants, who is willing,
and who will find a means to change is eligible for THE
BETTER WAY. The program provides a process for people
to discover their possibilities, to assess the need for
change, and to choose
the personal decisions about making changes in their lives.
THE
BETTER WAY is based on faith in God, the work ethic, and
the principles of the Twelve Step Program.
