Hello,
I am in the very beginning stages of starting a clean and sober living home
for women and I joined this community to get some advice in which direction I
should go to make this happen.
This is what I have so far:
A three bedroom home
I'm a Certified Addiction Specialist
Best,
Sam

Hi Sam, Check out this blog for a brief overview of the steps to take to start your own temporary housing service. Another approach that may be useful is talking to a mentor who could offer you specific guidance. Good luck!
Facilities such as yours are highly regulated and inspected. Your best bet is
to contact a counselor at a small business development center, SCORE office
or women's business center. Their services are free and they can direct you
to the right agencies to contact.
Have you considered starting your home as a non-profit? That will require
approval from the IRS, but it may make funding easier.
