Nicole's House isn't just a place of healing — it's a vision inspired by God.
Through faith-based mentoring, daily-living instruction, and career counseling, Nicole's House gives women a path out of the torment and destruction of addiction. Here, they rebuild — and return to their community as strong, contributing members of their city.
Our Impact
Addiction rarely affects just one person. It reaches into whole families — leaving behind poverty, broken relationships, and children separated from parents. When a woman heals at Nicole's House, that healing ripples outward: mothers regain custody of their kids, provide for their families again, and become active, contributing members of their community.
That's the real measure of our impact — not just one life changed, but a family, and a community, restored.
Our Program
To be admitted, you must be 25 or older, have at least 30 days of sobriety, and desire God as part of your recovery.
Nicole's House is a faith-based nonprofit offering transitional housing for women recovering from addiction in Northwest Arkansas. Residents stay for one year, working through a program that addresses every part of their lives — not just sobriety.
We call this curriculum The Six Pillars to Freedom: Faith, Recovery, Support System, Life Skills, Self-Care, and Career Planning.
Daily in-house Bible study and weekly attendance at a Christian church are encouraged, and house rules are grounded in moral and Judeo-Christian values. We believe that helping women overcome addiction changes not just their lives, but the life of their whole community.
The Six Pillars to Freedom
Recovery is more than sobriety, it's rebuilding a whole life. Our year-long program is built around six pillars, each addressing a piece of what it takes for a woman to leave addiction behind for good.
Faith - A relationship with God is at the center of everything we do. Daily Bible study and church involvement help residents find purpose, hope, and a foundation that outlasts the program itself.
Recovery - Structured support for the hard, daily work of staying sober addressing not just the addiction, but what drove it in the first place.
Support System - Healing doesn't happen alone. Residents build real relationships with mentors, sponsors, and each other, a community that holds them accountable and walks with them long after they leave.
Life Skills - Practical, everyday skills many women never had the chance to learn budgeting, cooking, time management, and the basics of running a stable household.
Self-Care - Learning to care for mind and body after years of neglect or harm building healthy habits around rest, nutrition, and emotional wellbeing.
Career Planning - Job readiness, resume building, and career counseling so residents leave with a real plan for supporting themselves and their families.
