Freedom Arch Coed Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Freedom Arch is a coed sober living community in Atlanta, Georgia, in Fulton County.

A Sober Living Community for Men and Women

Freedom Arch houses men and women in recovery, with separate living spaces for each and a shared set of expectations across the program. It describes itself as a supportive recovery community built on Twelve Step principles and self-help mentoring, coordinated with outside therapists and treatment providers as residents need them.

Built on the Founder's Own Recovery

Tyler Schaker founded Freedom Arch and serves as its executive director, and the program is built directly on his own recovery experience. Freedom Arch describes itself explicitly as not a treatment facility, positioning its role as housing, structure and mentorship, with clinical treatment handled by therapists elsewhere in the Atlanta area.

Recovery Housing in Metro Atlanta

Atlanta is Georgia's capital and the seat of Fulton County, and its size gives residents access to a dense concentration of outpatient providers, Twelve Step meetings and entry-level jobs. A metro Atlanta sober living program can lean on that infrastructure in a way a rural county seat cannot, which matters for a resident building a schedule around work and recovery meetings in the same city.

Georgia's Voluntary Certification Landscape

Georgia does not license sober living homes, and certification through the Georgia Association of Recovery Residences, or GARR, remains voluntary for any operator that chooses to pursue it. A prospective resident evaluating a metro Atlanta program should ask directly whether it holds that certification and what code of ethics it operates under.

Applying to Freedom Arch

Freedom Arch takes applications from men and women directly, and its self-help mentoring model means new residents can expect early contact with the founder or program staff, alongside the usual intake paperwork. Anyone considering the program should ask how it coordinates with outside therapists, what the weekly cost includes, and how the mentoring structure works day to day.
