Freedom House
Freedom Can Be Yours
Freedom House offers freedom from the chains of addiction through a relationship with Christ
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11
Freedom House
Freedom House is a non-profit, faith-based recovery ministry based in beautiful Sandpoint, Idaho.
Our vision is to see men and women moved from addiction to freedom through discipleship in the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Our programs utilize a combination of out-patient treatment providers, personal accountability studies and evidence-based programs, as recognized by the Idaho Department of Corrections, in the context of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, in a safe, sober, and welcoming environment.
We are currently providing the Sweet Magnolia women’s recovery program and the Bethesda men’s recovery program.
Freedom House is based in beautiful Sandpoint, Idaho, in Bonner County.

Biblical Teaching
God’s Word is at the core of our program. From daily study to discipleship and mentoring, the Bible is our foundation, with the Gospel of Jesus Christ its primary focus.
We believe real and lasting recovery can only happen through trust in God, faith in Jesus Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit working in their lives.

Road to Recovery
Seeing lives change as they move from addiction to recovery is our goal. Men and women are encouraged to focus on their personal recovery. Our case management team works with participants to obtain employment, engage with the various social support systems and to develop and progress toward their personal goals.

Idaho Criminal Justice System
Participants in Freedom House recovery programs are typically, but not exclusively, under court order as an alternative to incarceration. Some are under supervised probation and /or participating in the Bonner County Drug Court Program.
Freedom House staff works collaboratively with all agencies of the criminal justice system to insure the most positive outcomes consistent with all legal requirements and obligations.
Men's Safe & Sober Housing Program
Bethesda provides a safe and sober transitional housing program for men who embrace recovery from their drug and/or alcohol addiction. The main objective of Freedom House, Inc. is to provide a loving and supportive Christian environment where these men have the opportunity to be set free from addiction through the teachings of Jesus Christ.
Women's Safe & Sober Housing Program
Sweet Magnolia provides a safe and sober transitional housing program for women who embrace recovery for their drug and/or alcohol addiction.
