ABSOLUTE Ministries Women's House 4th Avenue Women's Recovery Home

About this Recovery Home

ABSOLUTE Ministries Women's House - 4th Avenue is a certified sober living home for women in Spanaway, Washington, in Pierce County. It is one of the few ABSOLUTE Ministries residences with its own published address and program page.

A Women's Sober House on 4th Avenue

This house sits on 4th Avenue in Spanaway and is the residence ABSOLUTE Ministries describes in the most detail of any it publishes. The ministry frames life here around "graduated limited structure": residents keep their own vehicles, phones and finances instead of surrendering them, and the house steps back its oversight as a resident demonstrates she can manage those freedoms.

Character, Accountability and a Personal Workbook

Every resident completes a personalized development workbook and is expected to be "willing and teachable," language ABSOLUTE Ministries uses across its program. Life skills training, community events and a connection to a local church round out the structure, consistent with the framework the ministry has run since founding its program in 2009.

What Certification Adds to This Listing

This house is certified by the Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences. Certification is voluntary in Washington, so an operator holding it here has agreed to disclose its rules and fees in writing and to accept a complaint process outside the house itself.

Spanaway and the Wider ABSOLUTE Ministries Network

Spanaway sits between Tacoma and Lake Tapps in Pierce County, and this house is one of several ABSOLUTE Ministries operates for women in the immediate area. A resident who later needs a different set of housemates, or simply more or less structure, can raise it with a ministry that already runs multiple women's houses nearby.
