Recovery Services Unlimited

About Recovery Services Unlimited

Recovery Services Unlimited is a sober living operator in Battle Creek, Michigan, running certified men's transitional housing in Calhoun County. The organization pairs recovery coaching with three named houses in the city, each assigned its own house manager, and its housing is Medicaid funded.

A Battle Creek Recovery Housing Provider

The organization describes structured, peer-run housing with a holistic approach, and its stated method is working one to one with each resident: identifying his strengths, naming the barriers actually in front of him, and supporting the recovery pathway he chooses. That is a deliberate refusal to run everyone through the same route, and it suits men who have already failed out of a program built on someone else's plan. Recovery coaching sits alongside the housing, so the support does not end at the front door.

Three Men's Sober Houses in Calhoun County

Three houses carry the Recovery Services Unlimited name in Battle Creek, and each has a manager assigned to it by name:

• Cherry St House, in Battle Creek, for men.
• Clay St House, in Battle Creek, for men.
• Grant St House, in Battle Creek, for men.

Street addresses are not published for any of them, so placement runs through the operator's recovery housing program coordinator. A named manager per house is a more accountable arrangement than one administrator covering a portfolio from an office, and it means a resident knows who to raise a problem with.

Medicaid Funding Behind These Recovery Homes

The housing is Medicaid funded, with residents contributing thirty percent of their income. For a man arriving from jail or treatment with nothing saved, an income-based contribution turns an offer of a bed into an actual move-in date, and the amount rises only as his earnings do. Confirming Medicaid eligibility early is the single most useful thing an applicant or a referral source can do, since the funding route determines how quickly a placement is authorized.

Certification for This Sober Living Operator

Michigan has no state licensure, certification or registration requirement for recovery residences, so certification through the Michigan Association of Recovery Residences is voluntary and it is the external record a resident can check. It commits a residence to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and house rules before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and a complaint process that reaches outside the household. Because the affiliate certifies residence by residence, the address on offer is the one to confirm.

One Application, Three Sober Homes

Applications go through the operator, and that is the practical case for a provider with several houses in one city. A man is considered for whichever household has an opening and fits, and if the fit turns out wrong after a few weeks, a move is a conversation with people who already know him. The funding, the expectations and the coaching stay the same at every address, so a transfer changes housemates without restarting his plan.

Who These Battle Creek Sober Homes Are For

The houses suit men leaving treatment, jail or a hospital who need structure and an income-based fee while they get to work. Medication for opioid use disorder is accepted and felony records are accepted. Battle Creek carries a Veterans Affairs medical center, a community college and a manufacturing and food-processing base that hires at entry level, with the county seat in Marshall a few miles east and Kalamazoo half an hour west. Anyone needing clinical supervision on site belongs in a higher level of care.
