WE WON’T STOP UNTIL EVERY WOMAN IS FREE FROM ADDICTION
The Her Story House dramatically accelerates the rate of women receiving treatment for their drug and/or alcohol addiction. By providing 24/7 supervision, case management, detox assistance, a warm bed, meeting their basic needs and more, Her Story is recognized as an innovative leader in the recovery community. We are not a treatment center, but a first step towards long-term recovery.
ADDICTION KNOWS NO LIMITS.
NEITHER DO WE.
- The average waiting list for a treatment bed in Dayton is 30 days.

- In 2017, morgues around Ohio were having to use cold storage trailers to store bodies due to the massive amount of overdose fatalities overwhelming local coroners’ offices statewide (The Washington Post)
- If a woman gets help on day one of reaching out, she is 85% more likely to follow through with her recovery journey.
- 70% of women who have entered the Her Story House have successfully graduated into a long-term treatment program.
