OUR MISSION
Agape Community Services exists to break cycles of addiction, incarceration, absenteeism, and generational trauma by restoring men as healthy husbands, fathers, leaders, and productive members of society.
“He will turn the hearts of the fathers to their children, and the hearts of the children to their fathers”
Our vision
We believe that when men heal and lead, families follow—creating lasting change in homes, churches, and communities and restoring their identity, leadership, and legacy.
BE PART OF THE RESTORATION OF MEN, FAMILIES, AND COMMUNITY

The Need
Short-term programs and fragmented systems are not enough. The community is in crisis, and we are stepping in with a better way.
We love our community and know they are doing their best – WE ARE BETTER TOGETHER and are here to be the missing link to restoration.

our solution: a different kind of evidence-based recovery
Agape Community Services offers a holistic, long-term solution through our 9 to 12 month therapeutic community. Everything we do is intentional, layered, and designed for lifelong impact.
Where are we in the process?
Construction is underway! The building is projected to be completed in Summer 2027. Avalon Construction from Sergeant Bluff is the contractor on the project.
We have our first few staff members and are working on our operational plans, licensures, and everything needed to be operational.
Fundraising is underway to complete the building construction and fund the first year of operations. We have raised $4.2 million of our $6 million goal for the building and have $500,000 left to raise for operations.
On Wednesday, October 9, 2024 we celebrated with the community during our ribbon cutting ceremony, dedicating the property and praying over the next steps as we prepare for construction of the building! Watch the local KTIV news story here.
