Great Compassion Ministries Recovery Residence Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Great Compassion Ministries Recovery Residence is a sober house in Rockville, Maryland, in Montgomery County, run by a faith-affiliated operator inside the Washington, D.C. suburbs. Great Compassion Ministries appears on Maryland's Certification of Recovery Residence list as a certified operator.

A Sober House Run by a Ministry

Great Compassion Ministries identifies itself by name as a ministry, a different kind of entity from the private companies and clinical practices that run most of the state's certified recovery housing. Certification applies the same standard to it as to any secular operator: a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules, and outside complaint review.

The Record Behind This Rockville Listing

No website belonging to the operator itself surfaced. A Yelp page, a nonprofit directory entry and a Montgomery County government resource page each mention Great Compassion Ministries, but none of them is the operator's own site, so none was used to fix a street address. The residence's exact location is not published, and a prospective resident should confirm it directly with the operator.

What MCORR Certification Requires

Maryland's Certification of Recovery Residence program obligates a certified operator to a written code of ethics, disclosed fees and house rules, a written relapse and discharge policy, and review through a complaint process outside the house.

Rockville and the Interstate 270 Corridor

Rockville is the seat of Montgomery County and sits along the Interstate 270 corridor, one of the region's largest concentrations of biotechnology and health care employers. The county's circuit court and its Metrorail Red Line station both sit inside the same city, giving a resident of a Rockville recovery residence a short reach to work, court obligations and transit into Washington, D.C.
