NewLife Behavior Ministries (NLB) is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit, tax-exempt charitable organization founded in Dallas, Texas by Dr. H.M. Motsinger in 1984. Buck Griffith has been President of NLB-USA since July 2002. Our central office is located in Corpus Christi, Texas. Today, Dr. Motsinger coordinates NLB efforts outside the USA.NLB has been described as a "curriculum-based" program that is constantly expanding, being updated and translated into more and more languages.The NLB curriculum is often used inside prisons, with family members of offenders, with ex-offenders and with anyone struggling to overcome an addiction. Our curriculum now consists of 13 courses, including a Childrens Edition. The courses are not Bible studies but Gods Word is seen as the common thread. The curriculum is used in 40 states in the U.S.A. and in almost that many foreign countries.NLB is not a prison ministry. The NLB curriculum can be (and often is), utilized effectively by prison minis tries. It has numerous other applications. More and more congregations are using and finding the NLB courses to be excellent choices in regular Bible School classes for both youths and adults.When used in prison ministries, the curriculum is most often used in the United States in the following ways:* Juvenile Detention Facilities County Jails* State Prisons / Federal Prisons* Substance Abuse Programs / Parolee Programs* After-Care Programs / Youth / Family Ministries
