We are thrilled to share that PEARL's Recovery Housing has been recertified by the Arkansas Alliance of Recovery Residences (AARR), the Arkansas state chapter of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences (NARR).
Even better? AARR chose our homes as October Featured Certified Housing. Click the link below to see us on their website!

What does NARR certification mean for the people who choose our housing? It means our homes meet nationally recognized standards for safety, structure, peer support, and recovery-focused programming. It means accountability. It means that when someone walks through our doors, they can trust that we take this seriously.
PEARL is currently one of only 13 recovery homes in Arkansas to hold national NARR certification, and the only nationally certified recovery housing program in Northwest Arkansas.
We want to be clear: there is good recovery housing in our region, and we are grateful for every provider doing this work. This certification does not make us better than our neighbors. It is simply a step we chose to take to hold ourselves to a nationally recognized standard, and we are proud to have done it.
If you are a recovery housing provider in our area and have ever thought about pursuing NARR certification, we would love to be a resource to you. This work is too important for us not to support each other.
If you or someone you love has been thinking about making a change and needs a safe, structured place to land, we would love to hear from you. You can access our housing application here: https://forms.gle/Mn93uzFQTDq8jkr46. We have housing for men and women. Know that if you choose PEARL, you are in good hands.
And if this post isn't for you, it might be for someone you know. Please share it. Someone out there may need to see it today.
