Katherine’s Way, affectionately known as “KW,” is a Christ-centered, sober living home for women. Here at KW, we use the 12 steps of Alcoholics Anonymous paired with a relationship with Jesus to bring women into the solution of recovery. This proven method is how the founders, Clifton and Ana Nobles, recovered. Therefore, they wish to share the freedom they have found with those who are still struggling with addiction, which is why Katherine’s Way was birthed.
Katherine’s Way was named on behalf of Clifton’s late grandmother, who continually loved and prayed for him in his darkest days. She never gave up on him, even when he completely gave up on himself. He battled drug addiction for two decades, but today, he has been free from addiction since early 2012. Clifton and Ana, his wife, have helped countless others become free from addiction by doing what Katherine did for him: loving people despite their shortcomings. This is the heart behind this ministry.

Yes, there will be an additional interview to determine if the potential resident qualifies.
Our program is a collaborative approach that uses the 12 Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous, the Bible, and the Redefining Recovery teachings of emotional stability. This approach helps residents recognize why they have used drugs and/or alcohol in the past, as well as equips them for emotional sobriety by providing better solutions to the feelings that will come as they live out everyday life.
The schedulaed daily routine consists of 5 on-site recovery meetings led by a rotation of teaching staff and program alumni. Additional daily group practices include morning awakening, completion of assigned chores and household responsibilities, dedicated mealtimes, and group retirement.
Additional activities include: Sponsorship pairing and 12 Step work
Attendance of outside meetings and church services

Katherine’s Way Scholarship Fund
The directors and staff at Katherine’s Way have burdened hearts for those addicts who cannot get treatment due to a lack of financial resources. Because of this burden, a scholarship fund has been created to help those who cannot fully pay the tuition to attend the program. This scholarship is designed to help provide funding for women seeking to recover from addiction. This fund will provide partial or full scholarships to women participating in Katherine’s Way based on the candidate’s financial need. If a woman seeking recovery cannot afford a portion of or the full monthly cost, a scholarship may be utilized to offset those costs when the funds are available.

Katherine’s Way Transitional Living
Our experience has proven that the transition process is just as vital as the intensive phase of our program. Although transition is not mandatory, we see it as an equally important phase to this program and suggest a 6-9 month transition period under the umbrella of KW. We have seen that somewhere around this time, all of the instruction taught at KW, when honestly and willingly applied, becomes second nature, and the fruit of this new life begins to manifest.
Residents will be required to maintain the following:
- Must attend at least three 12-step meetings and one church service a week.
- Demonstrate prosocial behavior, including living in accountability with others and be willing to follow suggestions.
- Know and obey all house rules, including curfew.
- Work a respectable job in order to pay all bills.
