The Jericho House

About The Jericho House

The Jericho House is a sober living operator running a Christ-centered recovery program for men in White County, Georgia, in the North Georgia mountains. The organization built its program around a full year of structured living, longer than most comparable stays.

A North Georgia Recovery Housing Provider

The organization runs a men's recovery program, not a clinical facility: housing, work experience and family counseling come from the operator directly, while medical and clinical needs are referred out to providers in the surrounding region.

Jericho Industries and a Work-Based Recovery Model

The operator runs its own remodeling and landscaping crew, Jericho Industries, and builds the program's structure around it. Every resident works through the crew, which gives the organization a way to teach a work ethic and a trade at the same time it houses a man for the year his program runs.

Certification Through a Voluntary Georgia Standard

Georgia does not license recovery residences, so certification through GARR is the operator's clearest public commitment: a published code of ethics, written disclosure of rules and fees, and an outside complaint process a family can use if something goes wrong.

Serving White County and Northeast Georgia

The operator draws residents from across White County and the broader northeast Georgia region, an area with limited long-term, faith-based recovery housing options for men.

Reaching The Jericho House

Admissions go through the organization directly. Questions worth asking at this level include how long the program has operated, how family counseling sessions are structured across a full year, and what a man's obligations are if he cannot keep pace with the work program.
