A home built on recovery

At The Gist Home, we believe recovery happens in community. Our house provides a clean, calm environment with clear expectations, regular house meetings, and peer support that helps residents transition toward independent living.

  • Zero-tolerance, substance-free environment
  • Curfew and chore structure that builds routine
  • House meetings and peer accountability
  • Connections to local recovery meetings and resources
“The Gist Home gave me the structure I needed to get back on my feet. It felt like family, not just a place to sleep.”

— Former resident
