St. Anne's Home

St. Anne’s Home is an 18-bed residential treatment facility in Birmingham, Alabama, providing a habitat for women to live during a period of recovery and rehabilitation from substance abuse. St. Anne’s promotes the general welfare of each resident by providing food, shelter, clothing, acceptance and support for a lasting recovery.

Since its beginnings in May 1964 as a home for women suffering primarily from alcoholism, services have been expanded to meet the needs of women overcoming other physical, mental and spiritual disorders. Today, the home operates as a private, non-profit charity within the meaning of Act 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and the laws of the state of Alabama.

St. Anne’s Home serves a diverse clientele – from professionals with multiple academic degrees to women who are nearly indigent. Each woman’s recovery journey is individualized, based on her specific needs. Residents come from throughout Alabama and across the Southeast.

The home provides an intermediate level of care at the midpoint in the recovery process - after completion of an addiction treatment program but before a return to independent living. St. Anne’s is a state-certified facility with a highly trained staff. Admission is available only through referral from a primary care facility.

At St. Anne’s, women gain the tools and skills to prepare to successfully reunite with their families and return to the workforce. The home offers a 90-day program, plus aftercare, with open-ended options for a longer stay.

The home’s funding comes from fees assessed the women, based on their ability to pay; grants from area churches, community foundations and individuals; and the state of Alabama. There are many ways you, your family, civic organization or employer could support the mission of St. Anne’s.
