No Cost Women’s Alcohol Treatment
HELPING WOMEN FIND HOPE IN SOBRIETY
Social Detox Program
Our Alcohol Detox Program serves as a non-clinical, mutual help approach to the problem of alcohol dependency for women. This supportive, educational setting is grounded in the spiritual principles of the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. By providing a safe and supportive environment to study and practice these principles, The Magdalen House opens the door to a life of contented sobriety through recovery for alcoholic women.

Peer Recovery Program
Our Peer Recovery Program is based on one simple philosophy: when one person helps another, they help themselves in the process. Studies show that actively helping others get and stay sober is directly related to one’s own success in immunity from drinking. Our Peer Recovery Program exists to support the practice of one alcoholic helping another alcoholic. That being said, our Social Detox alumnae are strongly encouraged to participate in our Peer Recovery Program as soon as they complete their two-week stay.
Our Peer Recovery Program at Maggie’s is open to all women in recovery from alcoholism at any point in their recovery.
Participation
To join our Peer Recovery Program, any woman in recovery from alcoholism may participate in any of the meetings in our regular meeting schedule at The Magdalen House. In addition, women can become a member of our Maggie’s Women’s Group, which focuses on facilitating service work and supporting The Magdalen House through fellowship, events and fundraisers.
For more information, please contact Ainsley David at 214-764-0793.
