Young Adult Program
Mending The Armor for LDS Young Adults is a formal treatment program designed for overcoming pornography addiction.
"Put on the whole armour of God that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil."
Ephesians 6:11
Young Adult Program
“In our battle, we form a brotherhood. Together, we strengthen and support each other as we work toward our goal of becoming men of integrity, worthy husbands and righteous fathers.”
Preserving Future Families
Research suggests that pornography and sexual addiction first manifest during adolescence and young adulthood. Unfortunately, most don't seek treatment until later in life when the problem has resulted in tragedy such as failed marriages, betrayed spouses and children scarred by divorce. Mending The Armor for Young Adults is a program for young adults between the ages of 18 to 30 who are combating pornography addiction and other sexual behavior issues. For many, this is a particularly vulnerable time period in their lives and for those struggling with pornography, the risk of the addiction interfering with future relationships and life plans is strong. Professional counseling is often needed for the emotional and psychological issues with which these young adults are battling.
