ASCEND PROGRAM
A new kind of recovery program for a new kind of crisis.
Countless young men today have been adversely affected by growing up with free pornography.
Pornography has affected their ability to regulate their emotions, experience joy, date, and be in healthy relationships. It has fueled isolation, anxiety, and depression. So many of these men are just stuck as a result of pornography abuse.
The challenges that this younger generation of men today face are severe and well-documented, including:
Percentage of men under 30 experience porn-induced erectile dysfunction.
Men under the age of 30 are not in a romantic relationship.
Millennial men that have given up on dating entirely.
Of men under 30 have not had sex in the past year.
We help men overcome shame.
The Valor Ascend program addresses the unique challenges that young men face in society today. Our program is specifically designed for men ideally ages 18 - 28. The initial goal of this program is to help break free from the dependence on pornography and the long-term goal is to experience healthy masculinity. It is a beautiful journey.
What does the program include?
Men’s Groups
This is where the miracle really happens. Men heal best in community. Men need other men to become better men. Vulnerability. Empathy. Acceptance.
Daily Accountability
Providing inspiration and motivation for change and holding men accountable to practicing new behaviors on a daily basis.
The Valor App
Get access to daily inspirations, recovery tips & tools, and curriculum. Join a community of other men who are in sexual recovery.
What makes Valor ASCEND so special?
It’s a community of young men who empower, love and support each other. A place where powerful friendships are cultivated and built.
Men get stabilized, breaking free from the bondage of pornography as we help them detox off porn and get to the root causes that are driving these behaviors.
Men learn how to humanize vs. sexualize and begin to understand what healthy intimacy and sexuality can look like.
New life skills are taught for dealing with loneliness, boredom, isolation, structuring time, identifying passions and purpose, and rediscovering the joy of living.
Men are held accountable each and every day to practicing new behaviors with the belief that you can act your way into a new way of thinking and feeling.
Access to healthy masculine role models who are in long-term sexual recovery to guide and mentor them on this journey.
“I spun my wheels for 10+ years trying to fix my porn addiction. Church groups, recovery groups, nothing worked. I tried Valor and something clicked. 180 days sober and counting.”

There’s no judgment here;
just a clear, structured approach to help you.
Men today are facing a quiet crisis — one fueled by isolation, repression, and an overreliance on pornography to cope with emotional pain. At Valor, we don’t shame men for where they are. We help them find a way forward.
Valor is a virtual recovery program built specifically for young men who feel stuck — emotionally shut down, disconnected from purpose, and frustrated by their own destructive behavior. Through our app-based platform and evening group sessions, we offer a practical path toward emotional maturity, self-respect, and genuine connection.
Our program is specifically designed for men ideally ages 18 - 28.
