A Large Supervised Recovery Residence in Lorain County

Sixty-four beds puts this among the larger certified houses in the state registry, with men and women housed under separate arrangements inside the same certified property. The Supervised level brings closer staff presence than a peer-run house, while clinical care stays with outside providers.

What Supervised Certification Requires of a Sober House

Ohio Recovery Housing's certification, unified with the state registry since the start of 2026, obligates a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and house rules before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and a complaint process outside the house. At this level, staff presence is more constant day to day than at a Peer-Run or Managed house.
