About this Recovery House

Esther House is a women's sober living home in Ironton, Ohio, certified by Ohio Recovery Housing at the Managed level and serving Lawrence County.

An Eight-Bed Managed Sober Home for Women

Eight residents keeps Esther House on the smaller side of the operator's Ironton cluster, with Managed certification balancing resident self-governance against staff oversight. The size keeps the household close-knit while still supporting a functioning peer structure.

What Managed Certification Requires of a Recovery Residence

The house discloses fees and rules in writing before move-in, keeps a written relapse and discharge policy, and answers to a complaint process independent of the household, on top of a published code of ethics. Ohio Recovery Housing tracks this certification at ohiorecoveryhousing.org.
