We are proud to be an established, community-focused Program which blends honored traditions with innovative, data-backed approaches to wellness.
We have three unique homes in our distinctive program. We are known for creating paths unique to each Member’s journey to recovery and sustained wellness, our curriculum creates progresses our Members through three distinct Stages of Mastery: Fundamentals, Bridgework, and Transition. Everyone begins at The Kingfisher House, our lakeside residence in North Asheville, serenely surrounded by mountain vistas. Eligibility for our Step-Down Program begins via a trial tenure at our nearby Nighthawk Cottage. Following successful residency, these Advanced Members progress to our neighborhood residence, The Redtail House in West Asheville.
