48th Street House Recovery Home

About this Recovery Home

The 48th Street House is a recovery home in Omaha, Nebraska, in Douglas County, run by Different Approach Sober Living. The operator states publicly that it supports LGBTQ+ residents across its houses.

LGBTQ+ Residents in Omaha Sober Living

Saying so in a public record is uncommon in Nebraska recovery housing, and it answers a question that otherwise gets asked awkwardly on a first phone call or never asked at all. A transgender applicant in particular has to know how a single-gender house will handle placement before committing to it, and an operator that has taken a position in advance can give a straight answer instead of improvising one.

Why Acceptance Policy Belongs on a Recovery Home Listing

Housing loss is what ends most early recoveries, and a resident discharged over who they are loses the address, the peer group and often the treatment that was attached to it. In a state with no certification, no complaint process outside the house and no registry, an operator's stated acceptance policy is one of very few things a prospective resident can hold it to later.

What Else This Douglas County Recovery Residence Publishes

The same operator states that it supports residents on the sex offender registry and residents with gang involvement in their history, both of which are common exclusions in Omaha sober living. Taken together the policies describe a provider working deliberately at the end of the market other houses screen out.
