Welcome to Us

The name, Talitha Koum, is from Syriac language and means "Little Girl Rise Up" and so perfectly fits the mission of what our Recovery House represents.

The Talitha Koum house is located at 527 East Main Street, Greenfield, IN.  The house has been remodeled into a four bedroom, single family home that is the home for 8-10 women in recovery.  A  house manager and residential assistant are onsite 24/7.

The home offers a safe,  supportive  and a sober living environment. We also teach and encourage self and social responsibility as well as life skills, self-care, family, employment, and recover programs.

​Funding is combination of donations, grants, sponsorship, and each house member pays a low-cost monthly contribution to the household.

Director - Linda Ostewig

Linda has a heart and passion to see families and those trapped in addiction to be free.  This vision, for opening a women's sober home in Hancock County, came from her daughter's 11 year struggle with alcohol addiction with no place to live sober after many rehab stays.  Linda has led several 12 step workshops and groups in codependency and addictions.  She has also taught the 12 steps and principles of recovery.
