Grace House offers a safe, structured home environment inside a beautifully restored 125-year-old heritage building. Residents are provided with everything they need — a bed, meals, and a supportive community — so they can focus entirely on their recovery.
Two blocks from downtown Drumheller, surrounded by walking paths and valley views, it is a peaceful place to begin the journey toward lasting change.
Structure and routine are central to recovery. Each day at Grace House follows a clear rhythm — morning group, classes, work therapy, and evening meetings — giving men the framework they need to rebuild healthy habits.
The Odd Job Squad provides real community work: yard care, snow removal, moving, and small jobs across the Drumheller Valley. This brings dignity, income, and practical re-entry into society.
Recovery doesn’t end at 90 days. Grace House offers an optional fourth month for those who need more time to transition — with continued access to counselling, community, and the support network built during the program.
Local connections — doctors, dentists, MH Enterprises, counsellors — are set up before graduation to ensure a smooth, supported re-entry into daily life.
At Grace House, the program is an integrated approach using our curriculum and the 12 steps. We aim to address key issues at the root — that undergird addiction.
Weekday mornings include morning group and check-in, chores, and a 12-week series of recovery classes along with nightly 12-step meetings.
Other recovery topics and life skills provide men with the tools they need to live in abstinence and emotional sobriety.
Each man of Grace receives one to two 1-on-1 appointments each week, providing goals, counsel, encouragement, and accountability for his program.
The men of Grace work on many weekdays and some weekends, providing service to the community. We have a long-standing contract to provide yard care and snow removal for residents in the Drumheller Valley, along with helping people move and other small jobs.
This, with chores and appointments, allows men to reclaim lost social skills and helps prepare them to re-enter the workforce and society. It also provides the dignity of work and a small amount of spending money.
For each man, recovery is a personal responsibility. At Grace House, individuals need to help develop their own program of recovery:
