VFOR Morrisville Women's Recovery Home

About this Recovery Home

VFOR Morrisville is a women's sober living home in Morrisville, Vermont, in Lamoille County, operated by Vermont Foundation of Recovery. The house has four bedrooms, two full bathrooms and a half bath in a residential neighborhood, with two singles and two doubles for a household of six women, and it sits a little over a mile from the North Central Vermont Recovery Center.

A Women's Recovery Home Within Walking Distance of a Recovery Center

The distance to the recovery center is the most useful number on this listing. Just over a mile means a resident without a car can reach peer support, meetings and recovery coaching on foot, in weather, on a day when getting there is hard. That single fact does more for a person's first month than most amenities. The house has a large deck and a backyard, and the interior is spacious for six.

What Vermont Certification Requires of This Recovery Residence

Certification through the Vermont Alliance for Recovery Residences commits the house to a code of ethics, to written disclosure of fees and house rules before move-in, to a written relapse and discharge policy, and to an annual onsite inspection. Compliance is documented and grievances are reviewed outside the house. Certification does not promise a good fit for any particular woman. It does create a record that can be checked before she commits.

Recovery Housing in Lamoille County

Morrisville is a village in the town of Morristown and the commercial center of Lamoille County, though Hyde Park a few miles north is the shire town. Copley Hospital sits in the village, the recovery center is close, and Johnson and Stowe are both a short drive. For someone leaving treatment in northern Vermont, this is one of the few addresses in the county that puts a job, an appointment and a meeting inside the same small radius.

Medication Policy and House Expectations

Women taking medication prescribed by a licensed medical professional are accepted here, including medication for opioid use disorder. The house asks for twenty hours a week of work, volunteering or school, attendance at recovery meetings, and shared responsibility for the household. The address is not published, and applications go through the operator.
