Active Recovery Foundation, Inc.

Active Recovery Foundation, Inc is the sister entity of Active Recovery Addiction Services in three parishes in the NWLA.  We are dedicated to help save as many people from the throes of addiction as possible, and to end the stigma surrounding addictive disorders, as almost every human being is being affected by it on personal levels or in extended families. 

We are embarking on our final endeavor, THE RETREAT for Women, located on 30 acres of sprawling lakeside waterfront, Spanish moss, Cypress trees and moonlit views.  This Retreat will focus on Traumas, Domestic Violence, Substance Abuse and so much more in a peaceful, mindful atmosphere using creative arts, holistic healing techniques, meditation, yoga and so much more.  The ladies will be allowed to get their hands into the soil of our Healing Garden, bake bread from Sourdough Starter, can veggies, mural painting, nature trails, kayaking and fishing directly from the banks of Lake Bistineau, located at 120 Blue Pond in Ringgold, Louisiana.

Other optional amenities include Massage Therapy from a Certified Massage Therapist, Hypnotherapy to assist in the Trauma Response in Women, Reiki Energy Work Healing from a Reiki Master, group therapy twice daily and workshops in Arts and Crafts on weekends.  This Retreat will be a 28 to 35-day Program, accepting all Medicaid Insurance and most Commercial Insurance. 

We are asking for funds for the ADA Bathroom and Fire Safety Sprinkler System, as well as remodeling the current building to be able to house 12-15 ladies comfortably.

Please share this and give as your heart desires for this remarkable new journey into healing for Northwest Louisiana!
