A Safe Place to Heal

Since 1965, Link Care's RPG Program has been the leading intensive counseling program for ministry leaders. Over 6,000 missionaries and pastors from every continent have found healing and restoration on our Fresno campus.

What to Expect

Arriving can feel vulnerable, and that's okay. From day one, you're welcomed into a quiet, private campus designed for rest. Your first week focuses on getting settled, building trust with your counselor, and letting the pace of life slow down.

  • Individual counseling (2–5 sessions per week — 2 typical for a couple/family, 5 typical for a single)
  • Couples therapy for married participants
  • Group therapy with peers in ministry
  • Psychological assessment
  • Spiritual direction and pastoral care
  • Private furnished housing on campus
  • Re-entry planning and follow-up support

Program Cost

We don't publish a firm price because cost varies depending on the size of your family and the specific services recommended for you. We're happy to share a ballpark estimate with caveats once we understand your situation — contact RPG intake for details.

Subsequent months are less. Mission agency and church referral funding may be available; ask us about options.
