The vast majority of treatment facilities in the United States are 12 step recovery processes, which consequently fall within the guidelines of modern 12 step programs. Alcoholism and drug addiction are commonly viewed as diseases that are genetically inherited and can never be fully cured; thus leaving those who want freedom from their addictions with little hope of finding a permanent solution. The average person seeking help through traditional means will likely endure a detox facility, an in-patient residential program, out-patient treatment, nightly AA meetings, a half-way house, group therapy, counselors, drug counselors, and family counselors, anti-depressants, psychiatrists, psychologists, numerous "evaluations," and most likely relapse. Each of these can be emotionally draining and equally destructive. This is not to say that current efforts are not valid attempts, but they are misguided and often times harmful. In saying this, one must be aware of some successes through these venues; however, that percentage of success at most is 5%. That would mean that the remaining 95% continue to struggle with addiction and alcoholism.
Clearly this is not a small problem: men, women, adults, youths, girls, and boys, are all suffocating under this blanket of hopelessness. Though drug and alcohol rehabs are failing, they appear to be the only option. Without some kind of intervention many people addicted to substances will continue with their self-destructive behavior. It is a national problem. Every certified treatment professional and court system would like a real solution, but they do not realize the ineffectiveness of conventional drug and alcohol rehab and treatment. Juvenile detention halls fail, schools fail, and prevention programs fail. The dependency people have on these programs is based on misinformation and skewed statistics. Drugs and alcohol affect everyone from teenagers to the elderly, their families, and the communities they live in. Without proper education and the truth, this problem will continue. In the current paradigm, there are few alternatives, and the cost of conventional treatment remains astronomical. Unfortunately, most people do not realize there really is a solution to their problems.

At The Saint Jude Retreat House™, people find different results from the conventional treatment methods. The Jude Thaddeus Program™ promotes permanent success. No matter what kind of trouble one has, there is a solution. Whether it is drinking, dope, amphetamines (speed, meth, methamphetamine, crank, crystal, ice, glass), methadone, benzodiazepines, xanax, valium, adivan, diazepam, oxycontin, hydrocodone, morphine, codeine, percocet, Ritalin, ultram, soma, barbiturates, ketamine, ghb, ecstasy (mdma,mda), LSD (acid), marijuana, cocaine, crack, base, opium, heroin, shooting (injecting), snorting, eating disorders, the solution is the same. Each of these is self-abuse caused by intense fear and self-centeredness. The solution is much simpler than therapeutic methods. The solution to fear and selfishness are faith and service to others. Living a life based on these two basic principles will relieve addiction and help one to achieve permanent sobriety, and a healthy, happy life.
It is common for people to feel that this program is too good to be true. This is a typical reaction in society. In dealing with substance abuse issues and alcoholism, failure is a regular occurrence in conventional drug rehab and alcohol treatment. We are a non-profit organization, and are privately funded. Although the treatment industry has become big business, employing counselors, nurses, doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists, etc., we are not a part of that costly group. We want results; we want to save lives; and we want to help those with addictions. Although we are not a medical facility, we do not use therapeutic strategies, and we are not in a clinical building, we still continue to produce unprecedented success. Our success rates are more then five times that of conventional treatment, and with our extended programs, over 90% have recovered permanently.
The information we provide is based on many studies and is unbiased. It has been reviewed by doctors and other health professionals and is credible. We are not an alcohol or drug rehab; instead, we have a social-educational program. We teach relief from chemical dependency through social and spiritual means. Life on the streets, overdose, depression, anxiety, emotional or behavioral problems, withdrawal, stress, jail, suicide, brain damage, unwanted pregnancy, Std´s, domestic violence, damaged home or family lives, and misery are all symptoms and results of self-destructive lifestyles. This no longer has to be the case. Despite professionals, self-help gurus, parents, states, and government agencies not having a permanent solution, we do. This "illness" does not have to be a rapid, chronic or debilitating disorder. The solution is simply learning how to be happy. This applies to everyone from children to the elderly. The Saint Jude Retreat House™ offers a new standard for recovery, and our process provides a solution for all stages and all cases. Our classes are taught by experienced instructors who support and provide help for troubled guests. The students in the house are not patients, instead they are guests and are treated with kindness and respect on personal terms.
There is a real solution and it is The Jude Thaddeus Program™.
St Jude Retreat House™ offers an alternative to conventional drug rehab and substance abuse treatment programs providing a permanent solution for recovery from drug addiction and alcohol addiction. Offering a solution for people suffering from drug abuse, substance abuse, chemical dependency, drug addiction and alcoholism.
