The Basics
Founded in 2013 by husband and wife Mike and Marisa Way outside Boca Raton in Deerfield Beach, Florida, Gracious Care Recovery Solutions started as a female-only sober living house. The facility recently expanded to provide faith-based outpatient substance abuse treatment, as well as gender-specific sober living homes for clients undergoing various levels of outpatient care. At Gracious Care Recovery Solutions, their mission is to provide a Christian sober housing program, which focuses on creating a strong sense of fellowship among residents.
Accommodations and Amenities
Gracious Care Recovery Solutions has a 32-bed capacity and accommodates clients in four single-family homes located in Deerfield Beach and Pompano Beach. There are two female-only and two male-only houses. The women’s house in Deerfield Beach boasts a white walled, tiled interior. Clients are paired in uniquely furnished rooms, which include twin beds with cherry red comforters, a flat screen TV, a nightstand with shelves, stuffed animals and dressers or closets. At the Deerfield men’s house, one single room is available, but typically men are paired in double-occupancy rooms. Furnishings parallel those found in the women’s houses.
The fully equipped kitchens include brand new stainless steel appliances. Residents are responsible for their own groceries, and meal preparation. Amenities include laundry facilities, a swimming pool (at the Deerfield-women’s house), Jacuzzi (at the men’s Deerfield house), laundry facilities, Wi-Fi and cable TV. Smoking is permitted outside in the back patio only. Each house has a live-in residential manager.
Rules and Regulations
Potential clients must be ages 18 and older. They must have been clean and sober for a minimum of 30-days. Residents are offered a flexible length of stay, ranging from 30 days to six-months. Upon arrival, they must pass an alcohol and drug screening and have their bags and personal property examined. Those on Medication-Assisted Treatment (MAT), or those taking benzodiazepines are not admitted.
Requirements for residents include attending outpatient care at Gracious Care Recovery Solutions or another approved facility, participating in Bible study, going to weekly church service, being at the house meeting, and attending regular 12-step meetings. Clients are also required to perform daily household chores, and write in journals on a daily basis. Drug and alcohol screenings are conducted twice a week. At Gracious Care Recovery Solutions, residents who have relapsed must immediately leave the premises to ensure the safety of the entire household. The curfew is 10 pm Sundays through Thursdays, and 11 pm Fridays and Sundays.
Extras
Other services included besides housing include vocational support, life skills, meditation and relapse prevention groups. At an additional cost, residents have access to a personal trainer, weight management counseling and meal planning. Transportation to church services, Bible study, 12-step meetings and the grocery store is provided.

In Summary
Gracious Care Recovery Solutions is perfect for clients seeking a sober living that combines a faith-based approach, along with the 12-steps. Additionally, attending an outpatient program is mandated, so this is a great fit for those who want to completely focus on their recovery.
