A Certified Sober House in Lakewood

Empower Recovery holds certification through Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado, the state's BHA-approved certifying body. Certification commits the operator to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and house rules before move-in, and a complaint process that runs outside the house itself. Colorado's certification guide explains what that standard requires of an operator.

Structure Built Around a Job Guarantee

Empower Recovery's program is organized around getting residents working, with a stated goal of job placement within thirty days of move-in. Peer coaching, personal budgeting support, and structured wellness activities round out the daily routine, and the model serves reentry and justice-involved residents alongside anyone else rebuilding stability after substance use.

What This Recovery Residence Does Not Offer

Ohio Recovery Housing – Colorado lists Kipling House as not supporting medication-assisted treatment, family housing, or rent subsidies. Anyone with those needs should raise it with Empower Recovery directly before applying.
