Gateway Community Services

About Gateway Community Services

Gateway Community Services is an addiction treatment and recovery housing provider in Jacksonville, Florida, serving Duval County through a continuum of residential and recovery housing programs.

A Jacksonville Addiction Treatment and Housing Provider

Gateway Community Services runs clinical treatment alongside its housing, which sets it apart from operators who supply housing only. Recovery housing at Gateway follows a clinical program, so residents typically arrive already connected to Gateway's own treatment history.

Recovery Homes Across the Gateway Continuum

Two of Gateway's recovery homes fall inside Jacksonville proper: Independence Village, fifty-six apartments in seven buildings on the Alumni House campus, and Magnolia Row, three bungalows for women with children in the Riverside District. Both sit downstream of Alumni House, Gateway's transitional program for men and women, and the organization maintains additional recovery housing at other Jacksonville locations beyond these two.

Serving Men, Women and Families in Recovery

Gateway's housing spans several populations: Independence Village is coed and open to men and women continuing recovery together, while Magnolia Row is reserved for women with children. That range lets Gateway place a resident according to their actual household.

Recovery Housing Across Duval County

Jacksonville and Duval County share one consolidated government, which keeps all of Gateway's housing inside a single jurisdiction. The scale of the city gives residents access to courts, outpatient providers and entry-level jobs without leaving the county Gateway already serves.

Applying to a Gateway Community Services Recovery Home

Referrals into Independence Village and Magnolia Row typically come through Gateway's own treatment programs, since both houses continue a recovery process that starts elsewhere in the organization. Gateway directs general recovery housing inquiries to its own recovery housing staff, and the right first question for either program is whether a bed is available and how a transfer from clinical treatment into housing is arranged.
