About NBS

What to Expect
Clients at New Beginning Sanctuary (NBS) move into a structured home to:
– Focus on building a foundation for sobriety
– Build accountability and stability
– Gradually restore relationships with loved ones
Clients are responsible for:
– Maintaining cleanliness
– Completing chores
– Adhering to house rules designed to support recovery and accountability
Each home includes:
– 24/7 leadership
– Basic essentials
– Limited access to phones, TV, computers, and WiFi
– The environment is supportive and organized to promote recovery.
It’s not “all about the money, it’s about you reaching your goals.”
It’s not just about money; it’s about helping clients achieve their goals. Since 2013, we’ve relied on clients to fund the program while holding them accountable for their actions, with a zero-tolerance policy for drugs, alcohol, fighting, and theft. Success is measured through financial independence and sobriety—both tangible actions, not just words.
We are responsible for enormous expenses such as rent, home, maintenance, employment and administrative cost, and much more.
Without everyone’s individual agreement to pay their fees, we couldn’t continue to operate. We are only as strong as one!
This is what recovery looks like
Donations
We are mostly a self-funded non-profit organization and we receive limited state funding for some clients. Monetary donations are greatly appreciated and will allow NBS to help more individuals access recovery and an opportunity for a productive life.

Simmering Center Branson is now being managed by New Beginning Sanctuary. We hope to blend the best of both programs and continue to provide quality housing to the Branson area.
