The Need

Women in the Tri-Cities deserve a safe place to heal

The Tri-Cities region of Virginia faces some of the state's highest rates of overdose fatalities, and women leaving incarceration or intensive detox are especially vulnerable to relapse within their first 30 days without a stable, supportive place to land.

High Relapse Risk

Women exiting jail or detox face steep relapse rates within 30 days when they return to unsafe environments.

Few Licensed Homes

There is a severe shortage of licensed, gender-specific residential recovery programs across the Tri-Cities Area.

Faith-Based Care Is Scarce

Virginia has a severe shortage of faith-based residential recovery programs for women who want Christ at the center of their healing.

A Community That Cares

Local courts, corrections counselors, and ministries are ready to refer women to a trusted, structured home.

Our Approach

A safe haven built on grace, clinical care, and structure

By His Grace Recovery pairs the state-required clinical framework with a deeply spiritual, relational approach to healing.

24/7 Safe Housing

A structured, supervised home offering round-the-clock accountability in a gender-specific, trauma-informed setting.

Licensed Clinical Care

Five hours a week of state-required, licensed counseling integrated directly into daily life at the home.

Spiritual Foundation

Christ-centered healing, community worship, and the Celebrate Recovery 12-step program restore purpose and connection.

Life & Job Skills

Practical training in daily life skills, resume building, and job interview preparation for lasting independence.
