Limen Recovery and Wellness

Limen Recovery and Wellness is a sober living residence, established in 1969, for men and women in recovery from drug and alcohol dependency.

Our mission is to offer a threshold to recovery and break the cycle of addiction in service to our community. Success through Partnerships and Generous Donors

In addition to generous contributions, many ancillary services are necessary to provide our clients the best opportunity for long-term recovery. Our valuable partnerships with other social service agencies in the community help our program be as successful as it is over the last forty years. These agencies include: Kirkwood Detox, Child Inc., Connections CSP, SOAR Inc., TASC, the Division of Vocational Rehabilitation, the Food Bank of Delaware, AIDS Delaware, the YMCA, Catholic Charities, Goodwill and West End Neighborhood House. The above list is not all encompassing and we are proud that Limen House is at the forefront of coordinating services within the community.

At the heart of Limen Recovery + Wellness’s Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) is compassionate support for recovery and the growth of personal responsibility. Our holistic framework gives individuals the space to reflect, heal, and build stability while working alongside a multidisciplinary team of peer support and addiction counselors.

IOP offers a balanced approach to treatment and everyday life.
It’s designed for individuals who need structured support but do not require full-time residential care. This makes IOP an effective bridge between inpatient treatment and traditional outpatient therapy.

✨ What makes IOP effective:
• A higher level of care without living onsite
• Flexibility to maintain work, family, and daily responsibilities
• A structured, supportive environment that promotes accountability
• A more cost-effective option compared to residential treatment

💬 Core components of IOP include:
• Group therapy sessions that build connection, coping skills, and relapse prevention tools
• Individual counseling to support personalized recovery goals
• Complementary and supportive therapies that address the whole person

Research shows that intensive outpatient programs can be just as effective as inpatient care for addiction recovery, offering strong outcomes while allowing individuals to remain engaged in their daily lives.

Recovery doesn’t have to mean stepping away from everything. With IOP at Limen, healing and life move forward together.

🧬The Science of Hope

Ever feel like your old habits are "hardwired" into your brain? For a long time, scientists thought that was true. They thought once you reached adulthood, your brain was set in stone.

They were wrong.

🔬Neuroplasticity is the brain’s ability to change, adapt, and heal through repetition. And in recovery, that truth changes everything.

Think of your brain like a landscape shaped by repetition. Old habits become well-worn roads that are easy, fast, and familiar. Choosing recovery means turning onto a road you haven’t traveled much yet.

At first, it feels slow and uncomfortable.🦥
You hesitate. You second-guess. You feel clumsy doing something new. But over time, that new route starts to feel less foreign. More natural. Eventually, it becomes the way your brain expects to move.

💭Every time you pause instead of react, reach out instead of isolate, or sit with a feeling instead of escaping it, you’re doing real work beneath the surface. You’re strengthening new neural connections and letting the old ones fade from lack of use.

This is the science of hope.🧪

With consistency, the brain actually lets go of patterns it no longer needs. It rewires itself in response to your effort, your choices, and your persistence.

You’re not just changing habits.
You’re changing your biology.👨‍🔬

So give yourself credit for the quiet, unseen construction happening today.
It’s real. And it’s working.

💫Just like physical healing, recovery doesn’t mean everything is instantly perfect. It means you’ve taken the steps to stop the harm, build structure, and put safeguards in place. With the right plan, guidance, and community, growth and new experiences are not only possible, they’re part of healing.

Recovery isn’t about staying stuck in fear. It’s about learning when you’re ready, how to move forward safely, and who to lean on when you do.💜

🌠Jeannie hit three years this week!
Three years isn't just a number, it's proof. Proof that you can rebuild. Proof that your story isn't over. Proof that the person you're becoming is worth every hard day it takes to get there.

To everyone counting days, weeks, or years: you're not just surviving. You're becoming.
Congrats, Jeannie!🙏

As the new year begins, recovery offers something quieter and more lasting than a “new you”: permission to move forward without carrying everything from the past. 🗓️

Progress doesn’t have to be loud to be real.

If today feels heavy, you’re not alone.
And if today feels hopeful, hold onto that too.

Recovery is made up of both kinds of days—and all of them matter.🙂

🎁At Limen, we see every day what becomes possible when recovery is met with stability, dignity, and community.

By pairing Limen’s evidence-based residential and recovery services with Friendship House’s strengths in housing, employment support, and community connection, we help people not only begin recovery, but sustain it. This integrated approach creates lasting change, especially for those navigating multiple barriers at once.

More than 55% of our operating budget comes directly from donor support, meaning your generosity immediately sustains treatment, recovery housing, peer support, and wraparound services that restore hope and stability.

Your gift is not abstract. It shows up in real lives, every single day.

💜As we step into 2026, we want to personally invite you to continue walking alongside Limen Recovery + Wellness at a time when the need for recovery services in our community continues to grow.

This past year has been one of meaningful expansion, both in the number of people we serve and in the depth of how we support them. Through our growing programs and our partnership with Friendship House, we are building a more connected and compassionate continuum of care for individuals and families impacted by substance use disorder.

Recovery needs are becoming more complex. Our response must grow just as thoughtfully.
