Supportive Home Application | Dismas House of Indiana

Finding the Right Fit

Dismas offers two residential homes with different levels of support. Individuals are welcome to apply for either home, and our team will help determine which setting best meets their needs.

The Dismas Supportive Home is designed for individuals who are just returning to the community, beginning recovery, or working toward greater stability. Residents may need assistance obtaining critical documents, finding employment, accessing treatment, building a support network, or navigating other challenges associated with reentry.

Our Dismas Transitional Home, located just one block away, is designed for individuals with greater independence and established stability, including reliable employment and transportation, at least six months of sobriety (if applicable), and external support systems.

Both homes are part of one shared Dismas community, with full access to the programs and resources offered through the Dismas Hub, just three blocks away.

Funding Note: The Dismas Supportive Home is certified as a DMHA Level 3 Recovery Residence and accepts Recovery Works funding.

Think the Transitional Home may be a better fit? Visit our Transitional Home page to learn more and apply.
