Resident Experience

Residents at The Glass House build healthy connections with other women on the same path while working a program of recovery and adjusting to new parts of their sober life, including attending college, work, and rebuilding connections with friends and family.


“When I started my journey to recovery, I felt so lost. This house gave me a sense of community and for that I will be forever grateful. This is a place of true support!” -D.I. (resident)

“I have been able to make unforgettable and long lasting friendships with the women at the Glass House.” -M.L. (resident)
