Serenity House / Door Of Hope
is a Christ-centered residential alcohol and drug abuse recovery house for men,
located in Sidney, Ohio.
Program Overview
Residents of Serenity House / Door Of
Hope are required to live on site and stay in the program for 6 to 12
months, although many men choose
to stay in the program for more than a year. Serenity House combines regular AA and NA meetings, weekly
counseling sessions at a county counseling facility, daily in-house
Christian education / church services,
and required steady
employment to help men to fashion a new and productive life for
themselves with Christ at the center. The program is comprised
of 4 phases, with escalating freedoms and responsibilities as the men
progress through the program. There is a zero tolerance for
drug
and alcohol abuse while in the program.
Financial Model
Serenity House's volunteer director
staff do not at present receive any salary for their work.
Serenity House is completely supported by each resident's weekly
contribution to the house from their salary. Presently, each
resident is required to pay $200 upon entering the house (for their
first 2 weeks in the program) and then $100 per
week thereafter for the duration of the program (please contact Serenity House
to confirm the current financial requirements).
Spiritual Model
There is no mistaking that Serenity
House is a Christ-centered program. This is emphasized when
speaking to prospective residents. Regular in-house Christian
education and church services, weekly one-on-one meetings with staff,
and spiritual mentorship are program mainstays.
