A Kingdom Living Program

Keys to
Kinship

Recovery-focused family housing for moms, dads, and kids — rooted in the 12 steps and built on community.

What Is Keys to Kinship?

Keys to Kinship is Kingdom Living's family housing program — structured, supportive sober living designed specifically for families in recovery. Whether you're a single parent or a two-parent household with children, Keys to Kinship provides a safe and stable home where your whole family can heal together.

Like all Kingdom Living programs, Keys to Kinship is rooted in 12-step recovery, employment, and community. We believe recovery doesn't just change individuals — it restores families.

We have been providing services since 2016. Most of our residents come from incarceration of some type. The remainder come from treatment centers, and some are homeless when they enroll. We require twelve-step recovery and employment while in our program. We focus on providing a stable environment, unifying families, and programming to educate our members.
