Jump Start Online Application

Step 1 of 5

  • Please read completely BEFORE completing your application. All prospective students of the Los Angeles Mission’s Residential Life Recovery Program must meet the criteria below. Please select each box as it applies to you:

  • Are you willing to commit one year to your own recovery from drugs, alcohol or whatever issues you are struggling with?
  • Are you willing to participate in classes/counseling sessions that are Christ-centered, biblically-based?
  • Are you capable of meeting physical fitness criteria, including daily ministry and vocational assignments, such as chores and job readiness training? A TB clearance within the past 12 months and a Medical Evaluation is required upon entering the program.
  • Are you mentally capable of participating in all aspects of the program, including attending classes and working cooperatively with the program staff? A mental health evaluation is required. If you have a diagnosis that requires medication, you will need a 30-day supply and a prescription for refills as needed.
  • Are you willing to comply with all program policy and procedures? Students who are accepted into the program are restricted to the premises for the first 30 days and will not be allowed to leave the building, make/receive phone calls or have visitors. Prospective students must take care of all personal business before entering the program, as you will not be allowed outside appointments during the initial 30-day phase. Additionally, students are not allowed cell phones for the first 10 months of the program. Portable electronic or any Wi-Fi devices are also not allowed. Based upon income, students are assessed a $150/mo. Occupancy Fee, payable after completion of the 30-Day Jumpstart Phase.
  • Are you willing to put relationships (other than legal or common law marriages) on hold while in the program? We believe students focus better on recovery without such distractions, so we discourage romantic relationship while in the program.
