EnglishWhat Is His Mansion?
Updated
His Mansion is a Christ-centered residential recovery program in Deering, New Hampshire, for men and women facing addiction and life-controlling issues. It has served this population for over 50 years, and its program runs about one year in two six-month stages. It is donor funded, and a year's stay typically costs less than $1,000, with each resident also required to have a sponsor providing $50 per month for personal expenses.
Who the program serves
The program is designed for adults dealing with addiction and other life-controlling issues. The site organizes its guidance by who is asking:
- People seeking help themselves are pointed to the Resident Recovery Program overview and application.
- Family members and loved ones can learn what the year looks like from the outside, when visits are possible, and what a sponsor does.
- Pastors, mentors, and counselors can find guidance on helping someone apply and on who the program is for.
How the year is structured
The program runs for one year in two stages of six months each.
| Stage | Months | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Stage 1: Restoration | 1–6 | Freedom from bondage, brokenness, and self-destruction |
| Stage 2: Growth | 7–12 | Freedom for purpose, meaning, and new life |
Stage 1 centers on identifying the roots of addiction, becoming alert to triggers, developing emotional resilience, learning "thought challenging," building holistic coping skills, and setting attainable goals.
Stage 2 shifts toward encountering the love of Jesus through formational prayer, serving and stewarding the people and places around them, and planning for future lifestyle, work, housing, and community.
What a resident's week includes
- Formational counseling: weekly one-on-one counseling that builds self-awareness and emotional resilience, works through relationships, and builds personal agency through goal setting.
- Recovery-focused education: a recovery curriculum that teaches residents to recognize and respond to the patterns behind their struggles.
Cost and intake
His Mansion is donor funded and does not generate revenue through its programs. Beyond the typical under-$1,000 annual cost, each resident must have a sponsor who provides $50 per month for personal expenses. New residents arrive through a rolling intake system, with arrivals every month.
