Grace House CR

Grace House Supportive Living operates as part of Unity House of Cayuga County's comprehensive approach to recovery support. The program provides residential services specifically designed for individuals whose recovery journey involves managing substance use disorders alongside mental health conditions or developmental disabilities.

This sober living environment recognizes that many people in recovery benefit from supportive housing that addresses multiple life challenges. The program serves as a bridge for individuals transitioning from more intensive treatment or those needing ongoing residential support as part of their long-term recovery plan.

Located in Auburn, Grace House extends its services across nine counties in central New York, including Broome, Cayuga, Tompkins, Wayne, Onondaga, Oswego, Seneca, Tioga, and Ontario counties. This broad service area allows the program to serve recovery communities throughout the region.

The facility operates Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM, providing accessible support during standard business hours. This schedule accommodates individuals who may be participating in outpatient programs, working, or engaging in other community-based recovery activities.

Unity House maintains a structured leadership approach with Chief Executive Officer Darlene Podolak overseeing operations alongside specialized officers for compliance, people development, finance, and community advancement. Chief Compliance Officer Amber Amidon ensures program standards, while Chief Advancement Officer Chris Iven focuses on community connections.

This professional structure supports the organization's mission of serving people with disabilities, individuals in recovery, and those managing mental health conditions. The leadership team's diverse expertise reflects Unity House's commitment to providing comprehensive support for complex recovery situations.
