Southern West Virginia Fellowship Home, Inc. - Men's House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Southern West Virginia Fellowship Home, Inc. is a men's recovery residence on Woodlawn Avenue in Beckley, West Virginia, the seat of Raleigh County. Three men live here under Level 2 certification from the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residences.

A Three-Bed Men's Sober House in Beckley

Three beds is the smallest household the organization runs and the quietest option on a street where it also operates a fifteen-bed house. For a man who does poorly in a crowd, or who works nights and needs to sleep in the day, a house of three is a genuinely different proposition without leaving the operator or the block.

What Level 2 Certification Obliges

Level 2 describes monitored recovery housing with structured expectations, where clinical care comes from providers elsewhere. Certification commits the residence to a published code of ethics, written fee and rule disclosure before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and an external complaint process. In a small house the rules matter less than the people, and certification is what puts the rules on record anyway.

The Fee and the Waiver

The published charge is $600 a month, waived where a man cannot afford it, and thirty percent of income once he is employed.

Medication-Assisted Recovery in This Raleigh County Recovery Home

Residents on medication for opioid use disorder are accepted across the operator's three houses.

Beckley Recovery Housing and the Region It Serves

Beckley sits at the crossing of Interstate 77 and Interstate 64 in the southern coalfields, holding the Raleigh County Courthouse, Raleigh General Hospital, the Beckley VA Medical Center and New River Community and Technical College. It is the practical center for a group of counties with almost no certified recovery beds of their own, which is why the houses on this street fill from a catchment far wider than the city.
