A Certified Women's Sober House in Lucas County

The house serves women only, and every bathroom, meeting and shared room follows that single restriction. Five beds keeps the household small, and residents get to know each other quickly, which is what peer accountability depends on in a small house. One set of rules covers the whole household, since there is only one population to write them for.

What Managed Certification Requires of This Recovery Residence

Ohio Recovery Housing is the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, and since the start of 2026 its certification and the state's recovery housing registry have been one list. A certified residence commits in writing to a code of ethics, discloses fees and house rules before move-in, keeps a written relapse and discharge policy, and answers to a complaint process outside the house. The Managed level describes what runs here: peer-managed housing with staff oversight and structured expectations, with clinical care delivered by outside providers.

Recovery Housing in Toledo and Lucas County

Toledo is the seat of Lucas County and sits on the Maumee River near Lake Erie, with the University of Toledo, ProMedica's hospital network and the Lucas County Courts all inside the city. A resident can keep a court date, a medical appointment and a job search inside the same few miles, which matters for anyone rebuilding a routine after treatment.
