Lighthouse of the Carolinas Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Lighthouse of the Carolinas is a men's sober living home in Greenwood, South Carolina, the seat of Greenwood County. It appears on the male sober living list published by the South Carolina Department of Probation, Parole and Pardon Services. The address is not published, and placement runs through the operator.

A Men's Recovery Home in the Lakelands

Greenwood is the commercial center for the Lakelands region, and the counties around it, Abbeville, McCormick, Laurens and Saluda, have almost no recovery housing of their own. That makes a house in Greenwood a regional resource, drawing men from a wide rural area who would otherwise have to move to Greenville or Columbia to find a bed.

Sober Living in Greenwood County

Self Regional Healthcare, Lander University, Piedmont Technical College and the county courthouse all sit inside the city, and manufacturing supplies much of the local employment. For a man leaving custody or treatment in the region, that concentration is what makes work, an appointment and a court date manageable from a single address.

What an Uncertified Recovery Residence Should Answer

The home is not on the certified list published by the South Carolina Alliance for Recovery Residences. Certification is voluntary in South Carolina, so absence says nothing about how the house is run, and the sensible approach is asking directly for what certification documents: the weekly fee, the house rules in writing, the relapse and discharge policy, and the route for raising a complaint.

Reaching This Greenwood Sober Living Home

Placement is arranged by phone. Ask how many men live in the house, what the weekly fee covers, how residents reach work in a region where transit is limited, and what the house does when someone relapses.
