Jefferson Center - Recovery Housing for Women Women's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Jefferson Center – Recovery Housing for Women is a women's sober living home in Arvada, Colorado, in Jefferson County. The residence is certified through Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado and operated by Jefferson Center, a community mental health provider that has served the Denver metro area since 1958.

A Women's Sober House Operated by Jefferson Center

This residence serves women only, which keeps meetings, common space and house expectations built around one population. Jefferson Center runs the home alongside a much wider slate of behavioral health and substance use services, so residents have a direct line to outpatient counseling, withdrawal management and crisis support from the same organization that houses them, without needing a second intake process at a different agency.

What ORH-CO Certification Establishes

Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado is the state's approved certifying body for recovery residences and its certification process commits a residence to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and rules before move-in, and a complaint process that runs outside the house itself. Colorado law ties state referrals and funding to certification through an approved body, so a certified residence has already cleared a bar that an unlicensed rooming arrangement has not.

Medication-Assisted Recovery Support

The residence supports medication-assisted treatment, so a woman taking buprenorphine or methadone under a prescriber's care is not asked to choose between her housing and her treatment. That matters most in the first months after a residential program, when losing either one can undo the other.

Recovery Housing in Arvada and Jefferson County

Arvada sits in the western Denver metro area, inside Jefferson County, where Golden serves as the county seat. The city gives residents access to the Denver metro's broader network of outpatient providers, employers and transit without the density or cost of living closer to downtown Denver. For a woman rebuilding a routine after treatment, that combination of an established mental health provider and a mid-sized city footprint is a practical starting point.

A Community Mental Health Provider's Recovery Home

Jefferson Center is not a housing-only operator. It runs adult and family behavioral health programs, substance use treatment and a pharmacy across multiple Colorado communities, and this residence is one piece of that larger system. Applicants can reach the organization directly to ask about openings, admission requirements and how the residence coordinates with its clinical programs.
