What is Recovery Housing
According to the Ohio Revised Code Section 340.01 (A)(3) “Recovery
Housing” means housing for individuals recovering from drug addiction that provides an alcohol and drug-free living environment, peer support, assistance with obtaining drug addiction services and other drug addiction recovery assistance.
The National Alliance of Recovery Residences defines recovery housing as sober, safe, and healthy living environments dedicated to promoting recovery from alcohol, drugs and other associated problems.
Levels of Sober Living
The National Alliance of Recovery Residences has established four levels of recovery housing that offer differing levels of support for residences. Rather than serving as a linear, step-down continuum of services, the models meet the varying needs of people in recovery. People may move in and out of the different levels depending on their individual circumstances.
A Level I, Level II, or Level III recovery home must…
- Maintain a drug and alcohol free living environment
- Maintain a resident driven length of stay
- Allow residents to have free choice of service providers
- Maintain a landlord tenant relationship with residents
- Does not offer clinical treatment services in the same building as the recovery home
- Provides recovery support services to residents at the home
