The program is organized into four sections, or modules: Self, Relationships, Sexuality, and Spirituality. These are four areas that men consistently identify as the triggers for relapse and the areas of greatest change in their recoveries Within the four modules, specific topics are covered, including
- Self-awareness and identity

- Grounding and relaxation techniques
- Communication
- Power, violence, and abuse
- Relationships
- Trauma and addiction
