Community
Where Recovery Takes HoldThe JADFA House is a Recovery Community Organization where we believe that treatment is only the beginning.
It’s community that makes recovery your future.
Recovery Community in Kenmore, Ohio The JADFA House
Founded on Faith, Recovery, and Community, The JADFA House is dedicated to mobilizing resources to increase accessibility to long-term recovery from alcohol and other drug addiction.
FAITH
With God as the main focus, we seek to mend the gap between recovery and faith that is not always seen in traditional style meetings.
RECOVERY
Our community is open to all people seeking long-term recovery – having a sincere desire to stop drinking and using drugs.
COMMUNITY
We bring people together to connect with others who’ve experienced what they’ve experienced, opening the door to managing sobriety.
The JADFA House Coming Soon
The JADFA House is scheduled to open our first location in 2024. While we renovate this space, meetings and resources will continue to be available through Just a Dad From Akron, the shop where the vision for The JADFA House grew and took shape organically.
SUPPORT
Donate or Become a Partner Your donation helps us provide the facilities and programs for recovery support. Partner Organizations have contributed labor, supplies and expertise to help their neighbors in recovery.
VOLUNTEER
Your Time Is Your Treasure, Too We are thankful for helping hands and hearts in contributing to JADFA House operations. We’re building the list now and will be needing help from cleaning to facilitating to childcare during meetings once our building opens.
Meetings
Not all methods are alike – but we know how they all work – so let’s talk about which support environment is right for you. And if a meeting we offer doesn’t fit your needs, we’ll help you find one that does.

Resource Center
The founders of The JADFA House, Kristi and Kenny, are recovery veterans whose experience and relationships can help guide your sobriety journey. They know – and are connected to – the region’s many recovery resources, so if The JADFA House can’t provide a specific service you’re looking for, they can point you in the direction of a provider that can.

Sometimes, when you're in the thick of it, it’s hard to see the progress. But looking at these before and after photos, we are reminded just how far we’ve come.
We know it feels like we’ve been saying, “We’re almost ready to open” for a long time now. The truth is, we’ve faced more delays, setbacks, and challenges than we ever expected, many of which we haven’t even shared. But through it all, we never gave up. And now, we really are almost there.
A huge thank you to Flow Construction for bringing this project home and doing such an amazing job for us! We are currently wrapping up some painting and small projects to get the doors open, and we can’t wait to welcome you all in.
This wouldn’t be possible without the incredible support of our donors and everyone who has stood by us on this journey. Thank you for believing in this mission and helping us bring it to life. And most importantly, we thank God for guiding us through every challenge and making this possible.
The finish line is in sight!!!!!!!!! ... See MoreSee Less
