About this Recovery Home
The Women's Home – Jane Cizik Garden Place is a women's recovery residence in Houston, Texas, in Harris County, run by The Women's Home.
A Women's Recovery Residence in Houston
Jane Cizik Garden Place provides permanent supportive housing for women, completed in 2010 as part of The Women's Home's broader continuum of care. Unlike a typical sober living house shared among a handful of residents, this is a purpose-built facility with on-site programming layered around the housing itself.
The WholeLife Model Behind This Program
The Women's Home organizes its services around six dimensions it calls the WholeLife model: emotional and mental health, financial stability, physical wellness, social connection, spiritual life and vocational progress. At Jane Cizik Garden Place that shows up as mental health services and connections to outside professionals, financial literacy and budgeting workshops, on-site fitness equipment, a volunteer-stocked pantry, social programming and dedicated meditation space.
A Nonprofit With Nearly Seven Decades in Houston
The Women's Home traces back to 1957, when it was founded as The Women's Christian Mission. That history matters for a resident or family evaluating stability: this is not a new or untested provider but an organization with decades of continuous operation in the same city. The organization was named a SAMHSA Recovery Innovation Challenge winner in 2022 and holds recognition from Charity Navigator and United Way.
Who This Houston Recovery Home Serves
The Women's Home states that more than 80 percent of the individuals it serves identify as people of color, and it describes its approach as gender-specific care built for women from the ground up, not adapted from a coed model. That focus shapes everything from the on-site programming to the community built among residents living at Jane Cizik Garden Place.
Recovery Housing in Harris County
Houston is the seat of Harris County and the largest city in the region, giving residents of this address access to the city's hospitals, outpatient behavioral health providers and job market without leaving the metro. For a woman coming out of treatment with no stable address, a long-established, service-rich residence inside that network solves more than housing alone.
ABOUT US
Our mission is to build communities that strengthen women and support families as they reclaim their stability through a unique model of care called Whole Life®. By embracing the whole person, The Women's Home prepares women and their families to become empowered and productive forces in their communities.
Sober living homes are group residences for people who are recovering from addiction. In most instances, people who live in sober homes have to follow certain house rules and contribute to the home by doing chores. Most importantly, residents must stay sober throughout their stay in the home.
