Coram Deo Recovery

The Basics

Founded by executive director Jody Davis in 2006 in New Britain and Berlin, Connecticut, Coram Deo Recovery offers transitional living for financially challenged women, as well as criminal justice clients. Besides housing, clients also learn basic living skills, so that they can successfully shift back into society. Davis who has over 25 years of sobriety, is a certified life coach. Coram Deo means “Before the Face of God,” and besides housing, the facility offers faith-based recovery support.

Accommodations and Amenities

Coram Deo has a 54-bed capacity and has five residences including Addison’s House, Esther’s House, Ruth’s House, Sarah’s House and Theresa’s House. The houses are decorated with country-style furnishings. Accommodations vary per house, but rooms include twin beds, dressers and nightstands.

Each house has a food pantry, which provides additional nourishment for those in need. Clients typically qualify for food stamps, and assistance is provided in applying for benefits, as well as obtaining clothing, and other essential items. Meals are prepared in fully equipped kitchens. Amenities include all utilities, laundry facilities and transportation. Staff lives on the premises and oversees operations.

Rules and Regulations

Coram Deo offers clients individualized recovery protocols. Length of stay is typically between six months and one year. Requirements include attending 90 recovery support meetings in 90 days, including 12 step or Celebrate Recovery, being at the house meeting and performing household chores. Clients are encouraged to leave the house each day and look for work, attend outpatient treatment, perform community service or enroll in vocational training classes. At Coram Deo, faith-based recovery support services are provided. These include one on one spiritual mentoring, as well as goal planning and Christian step study.

Extras

Other services besides housing include peer recovery support, case management, outpatient treatment referrals, job assistance, medical and dental referrals. Coram Deo is an affiliate of the Urban Alliance, a Christian-centered non-profit network of churches and other social service organizations.

In Summary

Coram Deo focuses on helping financially challenged women get back on track with their lives, while they work on their recovery. While the facility is faith-based, the 12 steps are also incorporated in the protocol, and mentors work closely with their clients to give them the attention and services that some women need in early recovery. Coram Deo does not disclose the addresses of their homes, for the safety and privacy of clients.
