Program purpose

What this program is designed to support

S.H.I.F.T. places truth at the beginning of meaningful change. Participants are invited to look honestly at choices, harm, patterns, strengths, and responsibility while also recognizing that no person is limited to the worst thing they have done.

This self-directed version carries forward the spirit of the original group work through structure, healing, integrity, fitness, mutual support, and purposeful action.
