Women for Recovery eyes Athens County building for housing unit
The group Women for Recovery seeks a site for a women’s sober living house and met with the Athens County Commissioners. They favor the former Athens County Job and Family Services building on Connett Road in The Plains for its bathrooms and proximity to services. County officials must ensure any plan uses the federally funded building as approved, costing about 350000, before leasing. The group, formed last year, aims for 5013 status and plans to teach life skills and support ongoing recovery through a 2 step program.
