About SKYHope Recovery

SKYHope Recovery is a sober living operator in Somerset, Kentucky, running a long-term, peer-driven residential program for women in Pulaski County. The program houses roughly 100 women at a time and was confirmed accepting new residents as of mid-August 2026.

A Peer-Driven Recovery Housing Model

SKYHope Recovery builds its program around peer accountability, with residents further along in the program taking on responsibility for those newer to it. At a scale of roughly 100 women, that peer structure functions as the organization's main form of day-to-day staffing.

A Long-Term Program in Southern Kentucky

The program runs six to twelve months, giving residents time to move through stages of increasing independence. Operating a program at this scale for this duration in a smaller Kentucky city represents a substantial institutional commitment.

Kentucky's Certification Requirement

Kentucky requires every recovery residence to be certified through the Kentucky Recovery Housing Network, and the law bars state agencies and health providers from referring anyone to a program that has not gone through that process. An operator running a program of this size depends on staying inside that referral pipeline to keep beds filled.

Serving the Lake Cumberland Region

Somerset is the seat of Pulaski County and the largest city in the Lake Cumberland region of southern Kentucky, an area with relatively few large-scale recovery housing operators. SKYHope Recovery's roughly 100-resident capacity makes it one of the more significant recovery housing providers serving that whole region.
