Barth House Men; Women's Recovery Home

About this Recovery Home

Barth House is a certified sober house in Ellensburg, Washington, in Kittitas County, operated by Barth Clinic and serving both men and women in recovery.

Recovery Housing for Men and Women in Ellensburg

Barth House keeps a coed household in Ellensburg, the seat of Kittitas County, giving Barth Clinic a certified residential option that does not require splitting applicants by gender before a bed opens up. That flexibility matters in a smaller city where a single-gender house can fill or empty unevenly.

Certification Through Washington's NARR Affiliate

The Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences certifies Barth House, which requires the operator to publish a code of ethics, disclose fees and house rules in writing before move-in, and accept complaint review from outside the organization. That gives an applicant a documented standard to check against instead of taking the operator's word alone.

Backed by an Established Outpatient Clinic

Barth Clinic has provided outpatient substance use treatment in central Washington since 1991, and Barth House extends that work into certified housing. A resident can draw on the clinic's existing clinical programs while living in housing the same organization operates.

Kittitas County's University Town

Ellensburg is home to Central Washington University and serves as the Kittitas County seat, which means courts, outpatient providers and everyday services are concentrated in a compact, walkable city instead of spread across a larger county.

Barth Clinic's Other Certified Home

Barth House is one of two certified residences Barth Clinic runs in Ellensburg. Barth House for Women is a second, women-only household under the same operator.
