Level 2 Certification in Raleigh County Recovery Housing

Level 2 covers monitored recovery housing with structured expectations and clinical services delivered by outside providers. Certification requires written disclosure of fees and rules before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and complaints reviewed outside the household. Since 2024, West Virginia has tied state referrals and public funding to holding it.

Medication Policy at This Beckley Sober House

Residents on medication for opioid use disorder are accepted at all three of the operator's addresses.

Woodlawn Avenue and the Southern Coalfields

Woodlawn Avenue sits in Beckley's older residential grid and holds one of the densest concentrations of certified recovery housing in southern West Virginia. Beckley is the seat of Raleigh County, at the junction of Interstates 77 and 64, holding the courthouse, two hospitals, the VA medical center and the community college. The surrounding coalfield counties carry the highest overdose rates in the United States and very few certified beds of their own.
