Gateway Christian Church Arrington Hall Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Gateway Christian Church Arrington Hall is a men's sober living home on C Street in Saint Albans, West Virginia, in Kanawha County. Seven men live here at $100 a week, with the first two weeks free, under Level 2 certification from the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residences.

A Men's Recovery Home on C Street

Seven beds makes Arrington Hall the largest of the church's three residences. It sits directly beside Bradbury Hall, the church's five-bed house, which gives the block twelve certified beds under one operator. C Street runs through the residential grid of Saint Albans off the main business district.

What Level 2 Certification Establishes

Level 2 describes monitored recovery housing with structured expectations, where clinical services come from providers elsewhere in the valley. Certification commits the residence to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and rules before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and complaints reviewed outside the house. For faith-based recovery housing, which is common in West Virginia and unevenly run, that external accountability is the substantive claim.

The First Two Weeks

No charge applies for the first two weeks, then $100 a week. That is the lowest weekly rate the church charges and among the lower published rates for certified recovery housing in Kanawha County.

Medication-Assisted Recovery in This Saint Albans Sober House

Sublocade and Vivitrol are accepted at all three of the church's addresses.

Saint Albans, Kanawha County and Charleston

Saint Albans is a river town of about ten thousand people at the mouth of the Coal River, ten miles downstream from Charleston. The state capital holds the county courthouse, the family court, Charleston Area Medical Center and most of the valley's outpatient providers, and the transit authority runs the corridor. Kanawha County carries more certified recovery beds than any county in West Virginia, and a meaningful share of them sit in the towns west of the capital.
