Shepherd's House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Shepherd's House is a men's recovery residence in Huntington, West Virginia, the seat of Cabell County. Four men live here under Level 1 certification from the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residences, at $120 a week.

A Four-Bed Men's Sober House in Huntington

The street address is not published, and placement runs through the operator. Four beds makes this one of the smallest certified recovery residences in a city that holds dozens. A household this size has no crowd to disappear into, and the accountability comes from the other three men.

What Level 1 Certification Means

Level 1 is the lightest tier West Virginia recognizes, describing peer-run recovery housing with minimal external oversight, where residents hold the household expectations themselves and no on-site staffing is required. It suits a man who is working and stable. Someone earlier in recovery would be better placed in a monitored Level 2 residence, of which Huntington has many.

What It Costs to Move In

The first week of $120 is paid in advance, with fees due weekly thereafter. A single week up front is among the lowest entry costs in West Virginia certified recovery housing, and it matches the pay cycle of the work most residents are doing.

Medication-Assisted Recovery in This Cabell County Recovery Home

Residents on medication for opioid use disorder are accepted. Huntington holds a methadone clinic and several buprenorphine prescribers inside the city, so treatment and address stay compatible.

Huntington Recovery Housing and the Tri-State Corner

Huntington is the seat of Cabell County and the second-largest city in West Virginia, sitting where the state meets Ohio and Kentucky on the Ohio River. It holds Marshall University, Cabell Huntington Hospital, the county courthouse and the Tri-State Transit Authority inside a flat, walkable avenue grid. That compactness is why the city carries more certified recovery residences than anywhere else in the state, drawing people out of treatment from across the western counties.
