A sober living home provides a structured, substance-free environment for individuals transitioning from treatment or early recovery to independent living. Residents share responsibility, support each other, and maintain accountability as they rebuild their lives.

Grace Haven serves women (and in some cases, men and veterans through specific housing programs) who are committed to long-term sobriety and ready to live in a supportive, community setting.

Grace Haven is located in Charlotte, North Carolina, providing convenient access to recovery meetings, public transportation, and employment opportunities.

We combine structure, compassion, and community accountability. Residents participate in regular meetings, maintain daily routines, and are supported by experienced staff who understand recovery and personal growth.

Residents agree to maintain sobriety, attend meetings, complete chores, respect curfews, and support one another. Random drug and alcohol screenings may be conducted to ensure a safe environment.

There is no fixed time limit. Many residents stay 6–12 months or longer, depending on their goals and progress toward independent living.

Fees typically cover housing, utilities, Wi-Fi, furnishings, and shared amenities such as laundry and kitchen access. Some homes include weekly check-ins or life-skills workshops.

Grace Haven helps connect residents to local employment opportunities, public transportation, and community resources. We also assist with job readiness, budgeting, and life planning when needed.

Grace Haven is a sober living community, not a medical treatment facility. However, we partner with local recovery centers, counselors, and support networks to help residents maintain long-term sobriety.

Visitors are allowed within designated hours and must respect house policies. Overnight guests are typically not permitted to protect the recovery environment.

You can fill out the online application or call us directly to schedule a confidential intake and tour. We encourage interested residents to meet with our staff to determine if Grace Haven is a good fit.

Bring personal items, bedding, toiletries, and clothing. Large furniture and pets are typically not permitted unless discussed in advance.

Because sober living homes are not clinical treatment programs, most insurance plans do not cover rent. However, we can provide documentation for recovery-related expenses if needed.

Grace Haven has a zero-tolerance policy for substance use on the property. Residents who relapse are compassionately supported in finding immediate help or treatment before they can reapply.

We focus on accountability, community, and purpose — helping residents build healthy habits, reconnect with family, maintain employment, and develop confidence for independent living.
