From the inside out, let me just say that this place takes in drug/alcohol abusers and puts them to work driving trucks, picking up donations, minding the store, etc etc. The facilities are run down and they give the "inmates" 7 dollars a week which begs the question, where does the money go? Also, there is little if any thought towards true rehabilitation, i.e. job placement, battling temptations. It is all Christian centered and even that is very skewed towards fanatical right-wing propoganda. It's nothing short of a Christian jail that preys on people with serious substance abuse problems. The success rate of those that leave is dismal at best.
Pros: Cheap merchandise
Cons: Contributing to a "questionable" establishment
