Phoenix Little Rock Women's Recovery Home

About this Recovery Home

Phoenix Little Rock is a women's sober living home in Little Rock, Arkansas, the state capital and the seat of Pulaski County. Phoenix Recovery Centers operates it as the women's house in a group of three Arkansas recovery homes.

A Women's Sober House in the State Capital

Little Rock holds more recovery housing than anywhere else in Arkansas, and most of it is coed or men's. A women's house is a narrower search, and it answers a real problem: a woman in early recovery who has spent time in mixed housing usually knows exactly why she wants a single-gender household this time. Every housemate is working the same problem, house meetings are written for one population, and the sleeping arrangements are settled before anyone asks.

Recovery Housing Choices for Women in Pulaski County

The house sits in the 72205 ZIP, the belt of older Little Rock neighborhoods running west from downtown through Hillcrest toward the medical district. That location puts a resident inside walking or short-bus distance of the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences campus, the Veterans Affairs hospital and a dense cluster of outpatient behavioral health providers. Someone leaving residential treatment in central Arkansas with appointments already on the calendar can usually keep every one of them from this part of the city.

Getting Around Little Rock From a Sober Living Home

Rock Region METRO runs the bus network across Pulaski County, and the routes along Markham, Kavanaugh and the Cantrell corridor are the ones residents of west Little Rock actually use. Employment in this part of the city runs to healthcare support, food service and retail, all of which hire on short notice and all of which sit on a bus line. Getting to work without a car is the practical test of a Little Rock recovery residence, and the address clears it.

Phoenix Recovery Centers Sober Homes Across Arkansas

Phoenix Recovery Centers runs houses in Little Rock, Conway and Springdale. The women's house in the capital is the only one of the three in Pulaski County. Because admissions run through one organization, a woman who later needs to be closer to work in Faulkner County or Northwest Arkansas is having that conversation with people who already know her.

What to Confirm Before Moving Into This Little Rock Recovery Residence

Arkansas does not license recovery residences, so the written record a house hands an applicant is the record. Certification through the Arkansas Alliance of Recovery Residences is voluntary in this state. Ask for the fee schedule, the house agreement and the relapse and discharge policy in writing, ask whether the exact street address is disclosed before move-in, and ask how a resident escalates a problem past the house. A women's sober house in Little Rock that answers all four in writing has already told you how it operates.
