MEMBERSHIP OVERVIEW/FEES
Grace Recovery TX focuses on enhancing the standards for sober living resident communities. The mission is to enable women to have a safe and supportive environment during the critical phases of taking control back over their lives.
Our residents have access to a complete range of services and resources to guide them to lifelong recovery with both proven recovery methods and integrated approaches.
This is a passion of the Co-Founders who have been on their own journey of recovery and supporting recovery.
Eligibility Requirements
The eligibility for Grace Recovery TX is assessed on a case by case basis, taking into consideration various factors, including but not limited to: age, environmental factors, treatment history, length of sobriety, frequency of relapse, and ability to function independently.
We also believe that at a certain point in a woman’s journey, habitual institutionalization has the potential to become more harmful than helpful. For members who have experienced recurrent institutionalization and may be re-traumatized by further inpatient treatment, eligibility is assessed holistically, considering the individual needs of the whole person.
