Goliath House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Goliath House is a certified men's sober living home in West Plains, Missouri, in Howell County, providing faith-based recovery housing alongside broader support services for men rebuilding their lives after addiction.

A Men's Recovery Residence in West Plains

Goliath House was founded by Cynthia Melton, a licensed clinical social worker, after her own son's struggle with substance use beginning at age 14. The organization publishes only a PO Box and no street address, so anyone considering the house should confirm its exact location directly.

Care Coordination Alongside Housing

Goliath House pairs a place to live with care coordination, spiritual and group counseling, life skills training and transportation assistance. That structure suits a man who needs help getting to appointments and building a daily routine, not only a bed and a curfew.

What MCRSP Certification Establishes

Certification through the Missouri Coalition of Recovery Support Providers is voluntary, which makes it meaningful when a house carries it. Goliath House's listing commits it to a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules before move-in, and a complaint process reviewed outside the organization.

Howell County and South-Central Missouri

West Plains serves as the county seat of Howell County and the regional hub for a large stretch of south-central Missouri, and Goliath House's location there puts residents within reach of outpatient providers and services that men from smaller surrounding towns would otherwise have to travel further to find.
