Helping Women Thrive in Long-Term Recovery
Three phases of residential care
Long-term residential recovery options are hard to find in Georgia, yet lasting addiction recovery needs lasting support. That’s why we offer three levels of customized care. The first level allows intensive focus on physical, mental, and spiritual restoration in an all-inclusive, highly structured program with 24-hour staffing. In the second level, residents are supported in their transition back to life goals and commitments while continuing with accountability, monitoring, and access to recovery coaches. Due to inadequate housing options for those early in recovery, for those that complete the Intensive and Transitions phases, we have a third phase residents can apply for as they to seek other housing options.
Why we Emphasize Peer Support
Real Faces of Recovery
Trained peer recovery coaches play a one-on-one support role with residents in our recovery housing. This means residents are surrounded and mentored by true recovery success stories—individuals who have walked a mile and then some in the very same shoes. By releasing the shame and stigma of addiction, we find healing together.
Our Lifelong View of Wellness and Recovery
A woman’s recovery journey may begin at Lightway Recovery, but it extends far beyond her time with us. Our personal recovery programs focus on what each person needs to establish a stable foundation and return to their life responsibilities with the tools and skills to thrive. In our structured, therapeutic community, programming addresses the complete picture of mental, physical, and spiritual needs.
Supporting Recovery for Prenatal and Postpartum Women
Pregnant and postpartum women are an underserved population with unique recovery needs. In addition to women at all life stages, Lightway Recovery welcomes those who are expecting or recently delivered. For these women, committing to an intensive recovery program is a profound expression of love that can forever change their child’s and family’s life for the better.
What It’s Like to Live at Lightway Recovery
