"Recovery is about progression, not perfection."

One of 11 Recovery Kentucky centers, Hickory Hill Recovery Center, located in Knott County, is a peer-driven, residential recovery facility for men over age 18 seeking recovery from alcohol & other drugs.

The goal of our program is to provide life-sustaining and life-rebuilding services to those suffering from drug and alcohol addiction by integrating a peer-to-peer, 12-steps, self-help model that offers the tools for recovery and restores productive lives.

Another goal is to reduce the isolation addicted persons feel from the community and from one another.

At Hickory Hill, we seek to improve the participants’ support systems and provide comprehensive services that enable abstinence and recovery to become a new way of life.

Designed to house 100 men, the facility consists of 68 efficiency apartments and two dormitory-style housing units. Referrals may come through the judicial system, social service systems, health care systems, and various other entities. Clients may be homeless, in fear of homelessness, or unable to return to their families.

Our purpose is to raise community awareness and activism to aid in the development and sustainability of our program. We believe the problem of drug addiction not only affects the individual who suffers, but also their families and entire communities. Building strong relationships within the community fosters a sense of hope not only for the clients we serve, but the entire area, as well.

The Problem

Substance abuse addiction can strike anyone from nearly any age group or demographic. So many factors are involved in substance abuse that it’s difficult to narrow it down to one main cause or set of causes. Whether the substance is alcohol, street drugs, or prescription drugs, addiction is an insidious disease that often leads to chronic homelessness.

The Mission

The mission of Recovery Kentucky is to provide hope to the homeless and those in fear of homelessness, who are suffering from alcohol and drug addiction by using a program that integrates a peer-to-peer self-help model.

The Purpose

Our purpose is to raise community awareness and activism to aid in the development and sustainability of our program. The problem of drug addiction not only affects the individual who suffers, but also their families and entire communities. Building strong relationships within the community fosters a sense of hope for the clients we serve and for the area as a whole.

The Solution

A typical stay in SOS is 3-7 days, but time spent in SOS may be longer depending on the needs of the client. While in SOS, the client is stabilized and monitored for withdrawal symptoms. At least one CPR and First Aid-trained staff person is on duty for every shift. The primary function of SOS is to stabilize a person and prepare them to participate in the recovery program. Ultimately, SOS is a fresh start for men to begin to believe in themselves. They are given the seeds of hope.

In addition, we provide:

  • SOS (Safe Off the Streets)
  • Motivational Track
  • 12-Steps
  • Therapeutic Community Meetings
  • Phase II/Peer Mentorship
  • Job Readiness Skills Training
  • Continuing Care
