About this Recovery House

Potter House Recovery - Women's Program House is a certified women's recovery residence in Florence, South Carolina, in Florence County. Operated by Potter House Recovery alongside a men's house in the same city, it serves women including veterans and survivors of trafficking. The address is not published, and applications are taken online.

A Women's Recovery Home Built on Peer Support

The house is peer-driven, which means the people holding a resident accountable are the women living with her. Twelve step work runs alongside individual and group sessions, workshops and book studies, and connection to Florence's recovery community. A woman who has been through programs that felt done to her tends to notice the difference quickly.

Specialized Recovery Housing for Survivors of Trafficking

The residence names survivors of trafficking among the women it serves. Interstate 95 runs through Florence County and is a recognized trafficking corridor, and specialized beds anywhere in the Pee Dee are scarce. A certified house that expects those residents is meaningfully different from one that would take them without knowing what to do next.

An Abstinence-Based Sober House in the Pee Dee

Medication-assisted treatment is not accepted here, which should decide the question early for a woman on a prescribed medication. The program is abstinence-based throughout, and everyone in the house is working within that framework.

Recovery Housing in Florence County

Florence is the county seat and the regional hub for northeastern South Carolina, with the courthouse, MUSC Health Florence Medical Center, Francis Marion University and Florence Darlington Technical College all inside the city and the Interstate 95 and 20 junction bringing the region's employment here. Certified beds for women in the Pee Dee are few, which puts this residence on a short list.
