My favorite recovery house in the Metro area. Good people and great neighborhood.

My boyfriend lives in this sober house and it has been the best he has done so far at being sober. This house has also taught him many life skills outside of sobriety such as money skills and good behavior. I highly recommend anyone seeking help or transitional housing looks into the Overton House. It is a good program, it is affordable and spacious. My boyfriend is doing so much better in this house.
