This directory lists transitional housing, sober living, recovery housing, shelter access, and reentry-focused residences across Arkansas.
It expands the existing Arkansas base while preserving current providers and organizing resources by region.
Always confirm placement with your supervising officer before moving into any program or residence.
Four reentry housing levels covered: emergency shelter and crisis access, transitional and reentry housing,
recovery or sober living environments, and longer-term supportive or independent stabilization pathways.
Get listed on OACRA to help justice-involved individuals find legitimate housing, shelter, reentry housing,
and recovery-oriented living options faster. We can classify your organization as Verified or Eligible and route users to the correct intake path.
Shelters, recovery homes, reentry organizations, nonprofits, community partners, and sponsors can help strengthen Arkansas coverage
and improve housing discovery across all regions.

Important: Being listed does not guarantee acceptance, placement, or approval by Arkansas Community Correction, a probation officer, parole officer, court, or provider. Programs may deny admission based on screening, supervision restrictions, waitlists, bed limits, treatment requirements, fees, or house rules.
Before applying or moving in: confirm that the address, housing type, curfew expectations, and household rules are compatible with your supervision conditions. Request written confirmation when possible.
Documentation: Keep copies of intake paperwork, house rules, approval messages, payment receipts, and any residence verification letters.
