Damascus Road Recovery Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Damascus Road Recovery is a men's sober living home in Covington, Georgia, in Newton County.

A Men's Sober House With Level III Supervision

Damascus Road Recovery holds Level III Type S, or Supervised, certification from the Georgia Association of Recovery Residences, placing it a step above simple peer-run housing. A Supervised-level home carries more structure than a Monitored one, typically including on-site oversight and a more active daily schedule, without reaching the clinical staffing of a Level IV program.

A Faith-Based Recovery Program

The house operates a faith-based program, a model common among Georgia's certified recovery residences and one that shapes the daily structure a resident can expect alongside the Twelve Steps.

Certification Through GARR

Georgia does not license recovery residences, and Damascus Road Recovery's Level III Type S certification through the Georgia Association of Recovery Residences, or GARR, is the state's recognized voluntary standard. That certification commits the house to a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and a complaint process outside the house itself.

Recovery Housing in Newton County

Covington is the seat of Newton County, part of metro Atlanta's outer ring, and its courts, outpatient providers and employers give residents of this Newton County sober house a working base without the density or cost of the city itself. GARR reports a monthly program cost between $1,000 and $1,200 for the house, a figure worth confirming directly before move-in given how fees can change.

Applying to Damascus Road Recovery

Applications go directly to Damascus Road Recovery in Covington. A prospective resident should ask what the monthly fee covers, how the Level III supervision is staffed day to day, and how the faith-based program fits alongside outside Twelve Step meetings.
