About GraceWay Recovery
GraceWay Recovery Residence opened its doors in August 2003 with the mission of providing women with a long-term abstinence-based solution to addiction. Today, that mission continues to be realized on a daily basis.
Recover In A Welcoming Environment
GraceWay is located in a beautiful Victorian home in downtown Albany, Georgia. This setting provides a comfortable, warm environment for women to face the hardships of their past while receiving unconditional positive regard from their counselors. A structured schedule, including daily chores, exercise, mindfulness meditation, counselor-chaired groups, spirituality groups, in-house 12-step meetings, weekly individual sessions, daily living skills, and recreational activities, makes up the bones of GraceWay.
Support For Lasting Recovery
GraceWay’s intensive recovery support home has thirteen beds, is taken thirty days at a time, and is a 90 day program. Once women complete the program, they have the opportunity to transition into sober living at The Way Sober Living apartments. The fully furnished two bedroom apartments are next door to GraceWay. Women can better practice and hone their new recovery skills in one of our nine apartments at The Way Sober Living for a period of 90 days. Recovering women find universality and community at the apartments while continuing with 12-step meetings and aftercare groups.
Safe, Independent Sober Living
During sober living at The Way apartments, women also have two safe environments for employment: The Bread House & Granary and The Whittlesey House. Employment at either business fosters independence and self-sufficiency through money and time management. Working in an environment that’s free from temptation is a great stepping stone for recovering women to take into a world that may not be so safe. Through this aspect of sober living, women gain a greater confidence in their recovery and a sense of responsibility and financial comfort. All of these positive aspects combine to form a lasting feeling of empowerment and success, which are crucial during the recovery process. GraceWay also offers traveling intervention services, helping families gently place their loved ones into treatment.
