Baltimore House Women's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Baltimore House is a women's sober living home in Kansas City, Missouri, in the city's Hyde Park neighborhood, run by Ozark Recovery Housing.

A Step-Up House for Women in Hyde Park

Baltimore House is the newest of Ozark Recovery Housing's women's properties, an eighteen-bed step-up house for residents who have moved past the entry-level stage of the operator's program. Step-up housing sits a level above respite care: residents here are expected to be working full-time and attending three recovery meetings a week.

Hyde Park as a Setting for Recovery Housing

Hyde Park is a historic residential neighborhood inside Kansas City, and its mix of older housing stock and proximity to the urban core is common ground for recovery housing in the city. Baltimore House shares that setting with Ozark House, the operator's other women's property in the same neighborhood.

Full-Time Employment as a Program Requirement

Every resident at Baltimore House is expected to pursue full-time work while attending meetings, a requirement the operator applies consistently to its step-up houses. The house is built for women who are ready for that level of responsibility.

Part of Ozark Recovery Housing's Kansas City Network

Baltimore House is one property in a network that spans Kansas City, in Jackson County, from entry-level respite care through step-up housing like Baltimore House itself. Independence holds the county seat, though the network's properties sit inside Kansas City.
