Grace House
Grace House operates a recovery residence for women in a high-rise building within the South Side neighborhood of Mt Vernon, New York. Situated roughly half a mile from the city center, the facility utilizes a small six-person household model designed to foster peer relationships and mutual accountability rather than an institutional atmosphere.
The neighborhood features a walkability score of 84 out of 100, which allows residents to manage most daily errands entirely on foot, while Calvary Hospital is located about four miles away. A resident house mother acts as a mentor to guide women through structured routines, and the program requires a commitment to complete abstinence.
Daily operations combine trauma-informed care and addiction recovery education with spiritual-approach concepts and on-site rehabilitation services. The property is pet-friendly and includes an outdoor garden, spa access, organized fitness options, and coordinated transportation services.
Prospective residents can contact the house management to review the abstinence agreement and check current room availability.
