Managed-Level Sober Living in Licking County

Four men share the household, and Managed certification pairs that peer structure with operator oversight while residents keep their own outside providers for medical and clinical care. Lighthouse Behavioral Health Solutions operates the residence as part of a wider network of certified houses across central Ohio, most of them concentrated closer to Columbus.

What Certification Obliges of This Recovery Home

The operator has published a code of ethics, disclosed fees and house rules before move-in, and adopted a written relapse and discharge policy. A complaint about the house is handled through a process outside the house itself, and since 2026 the certification and Ohio's state recovery-housing registry are the same list.
