About The Life Recovery House

The Life Recovery House caters women ages 21 and up who are battling substance use disorders. They are a licensed, faith-based halfway house offering 3.1 inpatient, non-hospital residential care. With a 6-month program, they guide each woman through recovery with structure, community, and spiritual support. They also have a 28-bed capacity and a 24/7 staff available.
Their approach blends evidence-based therapy and spiritual care. Women take part in individual counseling, 12-Step and Christ-centered groups, relapse prevention, temperament therapy, and trauma-informed models. Daily prayer, Bible study, and meditation are also part of the program that they offer. Classes in life skills, nutrition, art, yoga, and drumming are also offered.
Residents live in a home with shared rooms, clean bathrooms, and healthy meals. Outdoor views of the Appalachian Mountains bring peace, and nearby places like Ohiopyle and Falling Water offer fun, sober outings. Transportation is provided for off-site meetings, appointments, and activities. They are a faith-filled community that helps women grow, find purpose, and experience the joy of recovery.
To reside at Life Recovery House, clients must have at least 21 days clean and sober and agree to all GWLRH rules, including staff directives and House Rules. Weekly attendance at house meetings and off-site 12-Step or recovery meetings is required. Residents must also be engaged in work, school, outpatient therapy, or community service, and actively participate in a 12-Step program with a sponsor. Random drug and alcohol testing is mandatory.
Clients must be out of bed by 7:00 AM, with rooms cleaned by 8:00 AM. Chores are assigned weekly, and participation in the Three Phase Program of Treatment is required throughout their stay.
