Valley Oaks Residential Treatment Center Women's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Valley Oaks is a women's recovery home in Wasilla, Alaska, serving the Matanuska-Susitna Borough. It holds sixteen women at a time and sits in a quiet area about 45 miles north of Anchorage.

The program runs five to eight months of structured residential care for women recovering from substance use and co-occurring mental health conditions, including women who are pregnant or postpartum. When beds allow, mothers can bring children under the age of ten with them.

What This Women's Sober Living Home Settles

Losing a child is one of the most common reasons a mother refuses treatment, and one of the most common reasons she leaves early. A program that keeps young children with their mother removes that calculation entirely. Very few Alaska residences can say the same.

Care Inside This Wasilla Recovery Residence

Each stay begins with a full mental health and substance use assessment that shapes the treatment plan. Treatment blends evidence-based therapy with twelve-step facilitation, and residents work through trauma recovery, emotional regulation and relapse prevention in both individual and group sessions. Parenting classes and life skills training run alongside.

A Small Recovery Home By Design

With only sixteen residents at a time, staff can adapt care to each person rather than run everyone through the same track. In a homelike setting, that scale changes what a stay feels like.

Faith At This Recovery Residence

Its operator works from a Christian faith-based perspective, and participation in spiritual activities is optional. Residents are welcomed regardless of what they believe.

Matanuska-Susitna Borough Recovery Housing And Aftercare

Staff help each resident build an aftercare plan covering housing and employment before she leaves. Wasilla sits on the road system with Anchorage about 45 minutes away, so continuing care is reachable. The address is not published, and placement runs through the operator's admissions process.
