Who Is Eligible?

This program serves single men and women aged 21 to 65 who have completed Phase 1 and Phase 2 of Samaritan Inns’ Treatment and Recovery Continuum, or have completed an equivalent program from another provider. Potential residents must have 6 months of clean time, a stable income, and a physical health and mental health clearance. Potential residents are also encouraged to have an identified sponsor and demonstrated engagement in either outpatient SUD care and/or 12-Step Meetings. 

What to Expect: Your Journey with Samaritan Inns

Choosing long-term recovery is a big step. At Samaritan Inns, we guide each resident through a structured, supportive path designed to rebuild stability, health, and independence. From day one you’ll meet with a care team to create a personalized plan that addresses substance use, mental health, employment, and housing needs.

During your stay you can expect:

  • Individualized care plans: Regular counseling sessions and goal-setting with case managers who coordinate medical, behavioral health, and social services.
  • Evidence-based therapies: Access to trauma-informed clinical care, relapse-prevention strategies, and group therapy that promote lasting recovery.
  • Practical life skills: Workshops and coaching in job readiness, financial management, and daily living skills to prepare you for independent living.
  • Peer support and community: A sober, caring environment where residents support one another and build healthy routines.
  • Housing and aftercare planning: Assistance finding transitional or permanent housing and connections to community resources to sustain progress after discharge.

Our goal is to help you leave with the tools, confidence, and community connections needed for long-term success in Washington, DC. If you’d like to discuss how our approach could work for you or a loved one, our team is available to answer questions and walk you through next steps.
