<p><strong>ABOUT CENTER FOR LAY MINISTRIES - BLISS HOUSE</strong></p> <p>A Victorian home on a residential street, blocks from the Ohio River in Jeffersonville, Ind., Bliss House offers <strong>sober living for women</strong> struggling with addiction to drugs and/or alcohol. The program is one of <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/dasis2/nssats/n2016_st_profiles.pdf" target="_blank">106 in the state of Indiana</a> that offers dedicated treatment for women, and it's also one of Indiana's <a href="https://wwwdasis.samhsa.gov/dasis2/nssats/n2016_st_profiles.pdf" target="_blank">34 long-term residential facilities</a>. According to the facility itself, Bliss House is also Southern Indiana's only 12-step-based sober living home for women. The facility is operated by the Center for Lay Ministries, a <strong>faith-based food pantry</strong> and social services organization.</p> <p><strong>TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT</strong></p> <p><strong>Treatment is based on 12-Step, and the average length of stay is seven months.</strong> The center currently provides no further information about treatment specifics, though an alum's loved one polled by Rehabs.com indicated that clients <strong>find jobs in the community during their stay,</strong> which is common at sober living facilities. The same reviewer indicated that the program included only mediocre family participation, counseling options, and treatment for co-occurring disorders. During their stay, residents might take part in special fundraising events in the community, such as car washes, to help offset program cost.</p> <p>Once they've completed their stay at Bliss House, clients may, if they like, move to Bliss Too, which <strong>transitional living apartments</strong> where they can live independently while continuing to access Bliss House's recovery resources. There's also an <strong>active alumni association</strong>, which provides graduates with a sober network and mentoring opportunities.</p> <p><strong>STAFF CREDENTIALS</strong></p> <p>The program director is a certified instructor in the 12-step-based program, <a href="http://www.kellyfdn.com/about.htm" target="_blank">Recovery Dynamics</a>, and the assistant director is a graduate of Bliss House. Staff also includes a resident coordinator (who is herself in recovery) and several volunteers. The single individual polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the facility three out of five stars for its staff's level of training and experience.</p> <p><strong>ACCOMMODATIONS & AMENITIES</strong></p> <p>Bliss House is a <strong>12-bed facility,</strong> set in a family-style home. There is currently no further information provided by Bliss House regarding its living arrangements and related offerings, however, the single individual polled by Rehabs.com to date gave the center five stars for its meals, four stars for its cleanliness and accommodations, and three stars for its exercise and leisure offerings.</p> <p><strong>WHAT ALUMNI SAY</strong></p> <p>Rehabs.com hasn't yet polled any Bliss House alumni, but the center has two glowing reviews from alumni on Google. "The bliss house has saved my life!" Emily wrote in a five-star rating. Offering a four-star review, alum Gwenna added: "A Recovery house for Women.Great Program&amp; strict... ALOT. of Women have stayed Sober threw going through this program. And being good People back into society &amp; Good Mothers."<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a></small></p> <p><strong>WHAT FRIENDS & FAMILY SAY</strong></p> <p>The single loved one polled by Rehabs.com to date would recommend this facility, despite writing: "Too negative, they worry more about where their money is coming from then the actual person." The anonymous reviewer gave the facility four stars for its treatment effectiveness and admin/discharge practices, and three stars for its holistic offerings, family participation, counseling options, and treatment for co-occurring disorders.</p> <p>Secondary sites yield <strong>very positive commentary from friends of the facility,</strong> with a four-star rating from Kenneth on Google, and on Facebook, a five-star rating based on the opinions of 14 individuals, none of whom report having attended Bliss House themselves.<small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a></small> "We are, BLESSED to have the Bliss House as part of our local community. They're making a difference and they are changing lives!" Angela wrote in a typical comment.</p> <p><strong>FINANCING</strong></p> <p>Bliss House runs extensive fundraising campaigns, but the facility's website indicates that there are some fees left for residents to pay. The cost of the program is not specified, and it's not clear whether the center accepts insurance. The single individual polled by Rehabs.com to date indicated that treatment was worth the cost.</p> <p><small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-1"><sup>[1]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.google.com/search?ei=8WCAW_zUIv3G0PEPoJWjsA4&q=Bliss+House+jefferson+indiana&oq=Bliss+House+jefferson+indiana&gs_l=psy-ab.3..33i22i29i30.1757.3238..3380...0.0..0.295.1760.0j3j5......0....1..gws-wiz.......0i71j35i39j0i22i30.4RMHMHgry-E#lrd=0x886972f17534dd95:0x54f0991501b23c0f,1,,," target="_blank">GoogleReviews</a></small><br /> <small class="footnote"><a target="_blank" href="#footnote-2"><sup>[2]</sup></a> <a href="https://www.facebook.com/pg/Center4LayMinistries/reviews/?ref=page_internal" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/pg/Center4LayMinistries/reviews/?ref=page_internal</a></small></p>
