Joseph House

We offer transitional housing at our Marx Center to all clients in our Halfway House program as well as in one of our five buildings for clients in the Ready & Forward program. All clients who complete the Halfway House program are then assigned to our Ready Forward program. This program provides extended housing with more independence as they complete the Ready & Forward Out-Patient and Reintegration support programs for up to 10 months. Some residents may reside longer based on their individual needs. Our belief is that in order for our clients to sustain permanent housing post treatment, they need to build an 'eco-system' of success through out-patient clinical maintenance, family and health services, employment and other basic skill services to maintain independence and sobriety. New clients may be directly assigned to the Ready & Forward program based on their needs and past treatment history. Marx Recovery Center provides outreach through our "Landing Zone" on 1526 Republic Street, and through collaboration with other agencies in the local HUD Continuum of Care and VA Outreach Division. Up to 36 of the residents participate in our In-patient treatment program certified by the Ohio Department of Mental Health and Addiction Services as a chemical addiction treatment program. The Marx Recovery Center clinical counselors are certified chemical dependency counselors and provide the following services.
