Moving Forward Residential Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Moving Forward Residential operates a men's sober living home at 9620 Careys Run Pond Creek Road in McDermott, Ohio, certified by Ohio Recovery Housing and serving Scioto County. The residence is certified at the Managed level and houses sixteen residents.

A Sixteen-Bed Men's Sober House on Careys Run Pond Creek Road

Sixteen residents makes this the largest of Moving Forward Residential's three certified houses, all serving men in rural Scioto County. The size means more day-to-day structure is needed to keep expectations consistent, which is what the Managed certification level is built to describe.

What Managed-Level Recovery Housing Certification Requires

Ohio Recovery Housing certification obliges a published code of ethics, fees and house rules disclosed in writing before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and a complaint process independent of the house. Verification runs through Ohio Recovery Housing, the state's NARR affiliate.

McDermott and Scioto County Recovery Housing

McDermott sits in rural Scioto County, north of Portsmouth, the county seat along the Ohio River. Residents here are a short drive from Portsmouth's courts and hospital services, and Moving Forward Residential runs two smaller certified houses elsewhere in the same county.

Applying to This McDermott Sober Living Home

Ask what the weekly fee covers, how sixteen beds are assigned and organized within the house, what the written relapse and discharge policy says, and how a complaint reaches someone outside the house.
