About this Recovery House
Lifehouse is a women's sober living home on Hobbs Road in Arcadia, Indiana, in Hamilton County, run by Lifehouse Ministries.
A Women's Sober House on Hobbs Road
Lifehouse houses women coming out of jail, prison or crisis on Hobbs Road in Arcadia, a small Hamilton County community just outside Noblesville. The home restricts admission to women, and residents share a single set of house rules built around a shared recovery track.
A Structured Path From Three Months to Two Years
Lifehouse asks residents to commit to at least three months in the house, with a stay of up to two years available for women who need it. That range gives the program room to work with someone just leaving incarceration or an unstable living situation, while still leaving space for a woman who needs a full year or more to rebuild before living independently. Every resident works a 12-step program and is expected to develop a relationship with a Higher Power as part of the house's spiritually based approach.
Indiana's Level III Recovery Residence Standard
Lifehouse holds Level III designation on Indiana's Recovery Residence Designation registry, a tier reflecting a structured, supervised living environment beyond the peer-run model of Level I or II. That designation gives a family evaluating the house from outside Hamilton County a documented standard to check. Certification with Indiana's NARR affiliate, the Indiana Affiliation of Recovery Residences, underlies that designation.
The Only Women's Sober Living Home Serving Noblesville
Lifehouse describes itself as the only sober living home catering specifically to women in the Noblesville area, which matters for a Hamilton County resident who wants recovery housing without leaving the county she already has ties to. Amy Chaudion, the organization's founder and a graduate of Indiana Wesleyan University's Human Services program, built the home to fill that specific gap.
Recovery Housing in Hamilton County
Hamilton County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Indiana, anchored by Noblesville, the county seat, and within easy reach of Indianapolis to the south. That growth has brought jobs and services to the area, and a resident at Lifehouse is positioned close to both without needing to relocate to the state capital itself.
Applying to Lifehouse
Women seeking a bed at Lifehouse apply directly through Lifehouse Ministries. The organization's own program describes what an applicant should expect: a minimum three-month commitment, mandatory 12-step work, and a goal of leaving self-supporting. Those expectations are worth confirming directly before move-in, along with current bed availability.
