About this Recovery House
Lighthouse Recovery Center's Women's Home is a women's sober living home in Washington, Indiana, in Daviess County. The residence is one half of Lighthouse Recovery Center's faith-based transitional housing program, which runs men and women in separate facilities.
A Women's Sober House Rooted in Faith-Based Recovery
Lighthouse Recovery Center describes itself as a community of believers restored through Christian faith, and its women's program is built around that same framework: mentors, volunteer teachers, pastors and other church leaders work alongside state-licensed counselors and doctors to support each resident's recovery. Women live here for nine months to two years, a longer runway than most sober living programs, aimed at re-entry skills, employment and a full return to family life.
A Separate Facility from the Men's Program
Lighthouse Recovery Center runs its men's and women's housing as two separate facilities, and this Washington sober house is the women's side of that structure. Keeping the two apart means house rules, meetings and daily routine are set for one population, without the added complexity of managing a shared building between genders.
What the Program Asks of Residents
The stated goal at Lighthouse Recovery Center is to return residents to their community and families as sober, law-abiding and self-sufficient. That means women here are expected to work toward permanent lodging, employment and lasting cessation from drugs and alcohol, not simply to stay clean while living at the house. Family involvement is part of the model: Lighthouse describes its mission as reconciling families disrupted by addiction, not just treating the individual.
Recovery Housing in Washington and Daviess County
Washington is the seat of Daviess County in Southwest Indiana, a small city where a single organization running certified housing carries outsized weight for anyone searching the area for a women's recovery home. A resident here has access to Daviess Community Hospital and the Daviess County courts without leaving the city Lighthouse Recovery Center already operates in.
Reaching Lighthouse Recovery Center
Applications for the women's program go through Lighthouse Recovery Center directly. Given the program's length, nine months to two years, prospective residents and families should ask about the stages of the program, how family involvement works, and what re-entry support looks like as a resident nears the end of her stay.
