About Samaritan Recovery Community
Samaritan Recovery Community (SRC) in Nashville, Tennessee, has supported unhoused adults struggling with substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders since 1964.

These options make treatment accessible at every stage of recovery while promoting dignity through compassionate, structured care.
SRC takes a client-centered approach that addresses addiction and mental health together. Their team includes licensed counselors, mental health professionals, and a registered dietitian. Treatment options include group and individual therapy, relapse prevention, and medication education.

Clients stay in apartment-style accommodations with spacious shared rooms. Meals are provided daily, and the campus features indoor lounges and recreation areas, along with outdoor basketball and badminton courts. These spaces encourage healing through community and activity. Transitional housing allows clients to work while maintaining structure, and SRC assists with travel needs to ensure access for those in crisis.
