Butterfly House
A Place for Hope and Healing:
Our Mission is to provide a safe, sober residence for women in recovery from alcohol or other drug dependencies while introducing sober-living skills, peer-to-peer fellowship and support, and educational experiences that will aid them in the transition back into their families and communities.
What is a Sober House? A Sober House provides an alcohol-free and drug-free living environment for people in recovery. Butterfly House is a safe place for women to live together, work together, play together, and support each other as they work towards a better life.
Butterfly House Guiding Principles:
Accountability and Responsibility: Butterfly House provides opportunities for accountability and responsibility in addition to serving as a “bridge” between inpatient treatment, incarceration or homelessness, and independence in the community.
Peer-to-peer Fellowship and Support: Making the decision to reside at Butterfly House will give you the opportunity to form nurturing relationships and vital support networks with other people in recovery. Peers who have had the same issues as you can offer ideas for recovery resources and strategy for positive change. Providing service to others and experiencing mutual healing creates a community of support among those in recovery.
Respect for Self and Others: During active addiction, respect for self and respect for others is sometimes lacking. Butterfly House is a safe place to prove your ability to remain sober while repairing relationships torn apart by addiction.
Change Today for a Better Tomorrow: When an addict or alcoholic gets sober, they may have to change many things about themselves in order to maintain their sobriety. This could include changing jobs or eliminating unhealthy relationships. Butterfly House provides a secure place to adjust to these life changes and gain the strength you will need to be successful in society.
“If you always do what you always did, you will always get what you always got. If nothing changes, nothing changes.”
