About this Recovery House
Open Door Recovery is a coed sober living home in Bunnell, Florida, in Flagler County, run by Open Door Re-entry and Recovery Ministry.
A Faith-Based Recovery Home on Florida's Atlantic Coast
Open Door Recovery houses men and women together on East Booe Street in Bunnell, the county seat of Flagler County on Florida's Atlantic coast. The ministry describes its work as helping people with substance addictions and other life-controlling issues rebuild before returning to their families and communities.
A Christ-Centered Residential Program
The program is explicitly Christ-centered, built around biblical teaching alongside rehabilitation and life skills training. That combination of faith practice and practical skill-building is the core of what distinguishes Open Door Recovery from a purely secular sober house, and it is a fit that matters most to residents who are already looking for a program with a religious foundation.
Run by a Larger Ministry Network
Open Door Re-entry and Recovery Ministry operates as a division of Grace Tabernacle Ministries International, a registered nonprofit, which gives the program an institutional backing beyond a single house. That structure is common among faith-based recovery housing, where a church or ministry network absorbs the overhead of running a residential program.
Florida's Voluntary Certification Standard
Certification for Florida recovery residences runs through the Florida Association of Recovery Residences and is entirely voluntary. Anyone considering Open Door Recovery should ask the ministry directly about its current certification status instead of assuming from a website alone.
Recovery Housing in Flagler County
Bunnell is a small county seat on Florida's Atlantic coast, a quieter setting than the dense recovery corridors farther south, and Open Door Recovery's re-entry focus suits residents coming directly out of incarceration or treatment who want distance from a more urban environment while they rebuild.
