Trustworthy for 50 Years

Founded in Minnesota in 1972, Progress Valley has been a leader among charities that help with addiction and mental health concerns. Human dignity is at the forefront of all our individualized programs. We offer a full continuum of gender-specific services. We provide a welcoming, supportive and structured environment where clients can learn and heal from mental health challenges and the chaos of drugs and alcohol.

Your gift — of any size — helps make recovery from substance use and mental health challenges possible. Your contribution will be put to work immediately on behalf of deserving men and women who are ready to embrace accountability in their journey to recovery. It will be used to help them to, as our founder said, “make progress out of the valley of addiction.”

When we were looking for a site to launch the program, I drove out along the Minnesota River to the Shakopee Valley. The sight of the river valley struck me for a lot of reasons. It reminded me of the progress through the valley of tears. Also, accepting progress, slow and patient, instead of demanding perfection is part of AA’s Twelve Steps.
