About this Sober House

Genesis Recovery Kentucky Center is a sober living home in Grayson, Kentucky, in Carter County. It runs a long-term residential recovery program for men, lasting nine to twelve months, and is operated by Pathways, Inc., a regional behavioral health nonprofit headquartered in Ashland.

A Long-Term Men's Recovery Home in Grayson

Genesis Recovery Kentucky Center sits on C W Stevens Boulevard and houses up to 100 men at a time, making it one of the larger residential recovery programs in northeastern Kentucky. The nine-to-twelve month length of stay sets it apart from shorter sober living arrangements: residents are expected to work through the program's full structure over that time.

Part of the Recovery Kentucky Initiative

The program is affiliated with Recovery Kentucky, a statewide network of long-term residential recovery homes built in partnership with the Cabinet for Health and Family Services. Kentucky law requires every recovery residence in the state to be certified through the Kentucky Recovery Housing Network, and Recovery Kentucky affiliation is part of how a program of this size stays inside that statewide standard.

Operated by a Regional Behavioral Health Nonprofit

Pathways, Inc. is headquartered in Ashland and provides behavioral health services across a multi-county region of eastern Kentucky. Genesis Recovery Kentucky Center is its residential recovery program in Grayson, and the backing of a larger regional nonprofit gives the house institutional continuity that a single free-standing residence would not have on its own.
