Lydia's House

Addiction Treatment ON DEMAND.

Lydia’s House is a residential treatment center for women suffering from addiction, located in Benham, Kentucky, near the foot of Black Mountain. This tranquil community in the southeast corner of Kentucky, within Harlan County, offers a peaceful setting for recovery.

The Benham Schoolhouse Inn was built in 1926 by the International Harvester Company as a school for coal camp children. Since then, the town has worked to preserve its history, turning it into an inn. Harlan County is known for its natural beauty. It is also home to black bears and Kingdom Come State Park atop Pine Mountain. It was named after the best-selling novel “The Little Shepherd of Kingdom Come.” The highest mountain top, Black Mountain, is also found in the county.

Lydia’s House is conveniently located just 30 minutes from Whitesburg, Kentucky, and a little over an hour from Pikeville, Kentucky, making it an accessible option for women seeking healing and recovery in a serene environment.

“At Lydia’s House, I discovered what grace and compassion truly look like. The facility and staff here taught me to walk in love and accountability, giving me the foundation to focus on myself, my recovery, and my relationship with God. Surrounded by support, I found purpose and the strength to see what’s possible in my life. This has helped set the stage for where I am today, and where I can still go with my future!”

"This place is a safe haven for anyone that is struggling with addiction or any kind of abuse. The staff are amazing and truly love everyone. I enjoyed getting closer to our Lord and Savior. I never imagined that going to treatment would be so wonderful but it truly is. I have applied all that I was taught and no longer want to fill my life with bad things. I have so much to be thankful for. I am so grateful to have gotten the opportunity to be a client at Lydia's House."

"I can't say enough good things about this place so I'm just going to say I'm so grateful for everything they have done for my daughter. My daughter is back to her old self and has found the Lord and been saved. If you want to change your life, then I recommend this place."

"I was recently at Lydia's House Phase 1. I balked at the thought of going to a faith-based rehabilitation facility. The staff and interns at all of the ARC facilities are some of the most amazing people I have ever met. They really do care and it shows."
