Serenity House, Inc. operates alcohol and drug abuse residential recovery homes in northeast Indiana.
We were founded in 1994 and opened our first recovery home in 1995, thanks to the generosity of several anonymous and public donors.
Today we have four homes for women and six homes for men.
Serenity House, Inc. is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit corporation.
Serenity House, Inc. provides transitional living (recovery homes) for those men and women who have made the vital decision to become free from the bondage of alcohol and/or drugs.
Our highly structured environment and our programs are designed to facilitate a spiritual transformation that will enable our residents to lead a happy, useful, and productive life, free from alcohol or drugs.
The elements of our program are based entirely on the principles, practice, and theory of 12 Step Recovery as presented by the time-tested, experience proven process that became the model for all 12 Step Programs.
All Serenity House facilities and all the resources are dedicated to the concept that, with the help of other recovering people, men and women can achieve lasting sobriety with a quality of life they never imagined possible.

What we treat

Treatment & Programs

Levels of Care

Serenity House Inc provides sober living and transitional recovery homes across northeast Indiana. These recovery environments offer a highly structured setting for individuals progressing from the very beginning stages of sobriety all the way to self-sufficient independence. To help residents stay centered, careful house management bridges the gap between early recovery and a return to normal, productive living.

Sober Living

Therapies

Rather than utilizing traditional clinical therapies, the recovery framework here relies entirely on the lived experience and proven model of the 12 Steps. Residents engage in an ongoing spiritual transformation by working closely with sponsors and peers within the community.

Addictions

The transitional homes are deeply committed to helping individuals break free from the bondage of active drug abuse and alcoholism. Residency requires a genuine willingness to tackle these dependencies head-on and actively participate in the house culture. By living alongside other recovering people, residents find the mutual strength needed to manage their addictions and build lives they never imagined possible.

Alcohol Use Disorder

Conditions

These structured living environments are specifically designed for individuals navigating severe substance use disorder and alcohol use disorder. While the focus remains squarely on recovery from active addiction, the highly supportive community framework acts as a foundation for broader personal healing. Prospective residents must be completely open-minded about the nature of the help offered to properly address these conditions.

Issues

Transitioning back into everyday life is a core focus, with specific transitional locations dedicated to preparing self-sufficient residents to confidently reenter the community. Building a robust sober social network is woven into daily routines, heavily supported by local alumni who publish and share their personal recovery stories to show newcomers that hope is possible.

Sober Social Network / Community Building Life Transitions

Programs

The entire transitional living program rests firmly on the time-tested principles, practice, and theory of 12-Step recovery. Residents attend robust, daily programming including Big Book studies, 12/12 format study sessions, and weekly speaker meetings held right on the property. Through peer support and structured step-work, the program challenges individuals to seek a spiritual transformation.

Amenities

Residents enjoy unique, comforting spaces, ranging from a historic Victorian home in downtown Auburn to a sprawling seven-acre property equipped with a volleyball court and horseshoe pits.

Across all locations, the physical spaces prioritize cozy dorm rooms, warm fireplaces, and expansive common areas designed for fellowship and shared meals.
