Christian Community of Recovery

Shelter KC offers the Christian Community of Recovery (C-COR) to men staying in our emergency overnight shelter who are battling life-controlling addictions. C-COR provides a supportive, trust-based environment that encourages personal growth and responsibility, guiding men toward a committed, sober life in Jesus Christ. Through a mix of community support, classroom lessons, pastoral counseling, work therapy, recovery groups, and case management, we help participants build a foundation for a healthy, sustainable Christian life as they transition out of Shelter KC.
