Tikkun House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Tikkun House is a men's sober living home in Indianapolis, Indiana, in Marion County, at 820 N Layman Ave.

A Men's Sober House Built for Working Men

David Raab founded Tikkun in 2016 after noticing a gap for affordable sober living aimed at blue-collar workers instead of a clientele that could pay premium rates. He furnished the house with full-size beds and built a home-style feel instead of an institutional one, and he picked the property specifically because it sits between two major bus lines with a range of jobs within easy reach, a practical detail for men rebuilding a work routine without a car.

A 12-Step Program With Emotional Support Animals

Tikkun runs a 12-step program to help residents identify and work through the issues behind their substance use, and the house keeps emotional support dogs on site, which Raab built into the program specifically to help with the stress and anxiety of early recovery. That combination of practical affordability and a calmer, less clinical house atmosphere is what the founder set out to build from the start.

Reaching Tikkun House Through a Certified Operator

Tikkun House is not itself named on Indiana's DMHA Recovery Residence list, which under state law only matters if a house takes Recovery Works funding or markets itself using the words "recovery residence." Anyone evaluating the house should still ask directly about its standing with the Indiana Affiliation of Recovery Residences alongside its house rules and fees.

Recovery Housing in Indianapolis and Marion County

Indianapolis is the seat of Marion County and Indiana's capital and largest city, with a transit network, employers and outpatient treatment providers concentrated at a scale no other Indiana city can match. Tikkun's location between two bus lines takes direct advantage of that, giving residents a practical way to reach entry-level jobs across the city without needing a car right away.
