Renewal House

About Renewal House

Renewal House is a sober living and recovery housing operator based in Nashville, Tennessee, serving pregnant women and mothers parenting children across Davidson County. Founded in 1996, the organization has served more than 9,700 women and children through its combined treatment and housing programs.

A Nashville Recovery Housing Provider for Mothers

Renewal House describes itself as the only comprehensive substance use treatment program in Middle Tennessee built specifically for pregnant women and mothers parenting children. That focus shapes every program on its Clarksville Pike campus: housing, treatment and childcare are designed to run together, so a mother is never forced to choose between recovery and her family.

Two Nashville Programs on One Campus

Renewal House runs Family Residential Recovery, a residential treatment program with individual housing for mothers and children on campus, and a separate Recovery Housing program offering permanent, below-market housing for women who have completed treatment. Both sit at the same Clarksville Pike address in Nashville, and a woman often moves from one into the other as her recovery progresses.

Serving Women and Children Together

Renewal House's Child Development Center operates on the same campus as its housing, so childcare and a mother's treatment schedule do not compete for her time. The organization also runs an Intensive Outpatient Program for women who need structured treatment without full residential placement.

Davidson County's Consolidated Metro Government

Nashville and Davidson County share a single metro government, and Renewal House's location on Clarksville Pike keeps residents close to the county's family courts, employers and outpatient providers. For a mother managing custody arrangements alongside treatment, that concentration of services in one county seat is part of what makes the campus workable.

Applying to Renewal House

Women apply to Renewal House directly, and intake staff place them into the appropriate program. Given the range of services on campus, from residential treatment through permanent housing to outpatient care and childcare, the intake conversation typically starts with where a woman stands in her recovery and what she needs for her children, and Renewal House places her within its own continuum from there.
