West Virginia Sober Living

About West Virginia Sober Living

West Virginia Sober Living is a sober living operator running certified recovery housing in Morgantown and Charleston, West Virginia. The company holds seven certified residences across Monongalia and Kanawha counties, serving men, women, and women with children at a flat $575 monthly fee, with beds eligible for the state's Recovery Housing Program vouchers.

A Two-City Recovery Housing Provider

The portfolio splits cleanly between the state's two busiest recovery markets. Four houses sit in Morgantown, the university city in the north, and three in Charleston, the state capital. Those are the two places in West Virginia with the deepest concentration of outpatient providers, courts and entry-level employment, and an operator holding certified beds in both can move a resident between them without handing them off to a stranger.

Sober Homes for Men, Women, and Women with Children

Six of the seven residences are single-gender. The seventh, in Charleston, is one of a small number of certified recovery residences in West Virginia that houses women together with their children, which is the population most often forced to choose between recovery housing and keeping custody. Capacities run from eleven to eighteen beds.

Recovery Housing Program Vouchers and the $575 Fee

Every residence charges $575 a month and every one is listed as eligible for Recovery Housing Program vouchers. Those vouchers cover the first forty-five days for new residents who meet federal low-income guidelines, which means a person leaving treatment with nothing can enter and start paying once work is in place. Uniform pricing across the portfolio also means a transfer between houses or between cities carries no financial surprise.

Level 2 Certification Across Every Address

All seven residences hold Level 2 certification from the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residences, the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences. Level 2 describes monitored recovery housing with structured expectations and clinical care from outside providers. Certification is issued address by address, so carrying it uniformly reflects a decision made at the company level.

Contacting a Morgantown and Charleston Sober Living Operator

Most of these addresses are not published, and placement runs through the company. The questions worth asking at the operator level are different from the ones about a single address: how long the company has housed residents in each city, whether it takes direct referrals from treatment providers and drug courts, how the voucher application works in practice, how the deposit and fee are documented and refunded, and how a complaint gets escalated past the house to the operator and then to the certifying body.
