INDIANAPOLIS, IN—Drug overdose is the leading cause of accidental death in the U.S. Further, studies reveal that the “church attending” population experiences addiction at the same rate as the general population. Yet, most churches are underprepared to effectively respond to drug addiction and refer people to secular programs.

Sadly, Indiana is one of the top 5 states for fastest-growing rate of drug overdose deaths. More than 900,000 Indiana residents qualify each year for inpatient drug/alcohol treatment, yet Indiana has just 34 residential treatment centers with only 930 beds total.

NewDay Treatment Center exists to help individuals seeking freedom from addiction, encourage and educate their families, and equip churches with faith-based recovery services. The NewDay Center is a full-service addiction treatment program that includes an inpatient facility in Southern Indiana and long-term aftercare services.
