Sober living (also called recovery housing or a recovery residence) bridges the gap between treatment and independent living: residents hold jobs, attend meetings, and rebuild daily routines in a structured, peer-supported home. Homes here list from about $500/month, though costs vary by city and services, and many Kentucky homes are certified by KYARR, the state's NARR affiliate. 4 Kentucky homes are marked MAT-friendly (Suboxone, methadone, or Vivitrol).

Of the 1 Kentucky home that publish pricing on this directory, monthly rent ranges from about $500 to $500, with a typical starting rate near $500/month. Most homes don't post prices online, so the real range is wider — call the home's intake line for an exact figure. A home's fee usually covers your bed, utilities, and the structure of the house; it rarely includes therapy, food, or transportation unless stated. Ask every home about scholarships, sliding-scale rates, or move-in specials — many Kentucky homes offer them but don't advertise it.

Kentucky homes on this directory include 42 men's, 19 women's and 27 co-ed recovery residences. Single-gender homes are common in early recovery because many people do better without the distractions of a co-ed house at first.
