Good Shepherd Ministries is a sober living home in Riverside, Ohio that provides adults in early recovery with a safe, substance-free place to live during early recovery. Like other quality recovery residences, a sober living home is built around three things that research consistently ties to lasting recovery: stable, drug- and alcohol-free housing, peer support from others who understand what early sobriety feels like, and structure and accountability that help rebuild healthy daily routines. Residents here have access to Some forms of MAT Supported (reasonable accommodations may be requested), Veterans supports offered, Transportation supports offered, and Employment support offered.
Most structured sober living homes ask residents to stay substance-free, attend recovery meetings, submit to random drug and alcohol testing, follow a curfew, complete household chores, and either work, attend school, or actively look for a job. These expectations aren't there to be punitive — they're the scaffolding that keeps a house safe and gives residents the consistency that protects early sobriety. When you contact Good Shepherd Ministries, ask them to walk you through their specific house rules, curfew, guest policy, and how long a typical stay lasts so you know exactly what you're agreeing to.
