SAFE, TRANSITIONAL HOUSING FOR RECOVERING WOMEN & THEIR CHILDREN

There’s no place
like home.

For a woman who is recovering from trauma and addiction…
Who is working to rebuild her life and get back on her feet…
Who is committed to reuniting and restoring her family…

Having a safe home can make all the difference.

At Gateway House, we provide homes for recovering women & their children. 

Each of our homes offers: 

  • Well-maintained, comfortable living in a safe neighborhood

  • Affordable rental rates (30% of market value) 

  • Community structure, support & accountability 

  • Easy access to Southern Hills Church & recovery programming

  • Security & stability for the entire family

  • All DHS housing requirements for reunification 

  • A gateway to a brighter future for generations to come!

These are the houses that love builds…

Funded solely by donations, we purchase, renovate & maintain homes in safe Tulsa neighborhoods.

  • PURCHASING HOMES

    We purchase homes in safe Tulsa neighborhoods, then provide them to Inside Out Re-Entry Services at approximately 30% of average local rental costs.

  • RENOVATIONS

    Our experienced, volunteer builders renovate our homes to ensure they are safe, comfortable and meet all DHS housing requirements for family reunification.

  • MAINTENANCE

    From painting to repairs, we provide ongoing maintenance to make sure every home we own is well-maintained for safety and longevity.

Together, we’re making a difference.



Gateway House is a faith-based organization led entirely by volunteers with decades of experience in building, real estate and re-entry/recovery ministry.

We have no paid employees or administrative expenses, so 100% of donations go directly to our ministry. 

Since 2014, we have:

  • Purchased and fully paid off 6 Tulsa homes

  • Funded the ongoing maintenance of our homes (approx. $60,000/year)

  • Provided housing to approximately 100 women participating in Inside Out Re-Entry Services 

  • Helped reunite over 150 children with their mothers

  • "Because of Gateway House, we can offer the women in our program safe, affordable homes near their church community. Having such a supportive, stable living situation is critical for the women—especially those who are working to reunite with their children.”

    Sherry Beair, Executive Director, Inside Out Re-Entry Services

  • “Gateway House gave my children and me a safe place to grow as I worked on myself and learned how to become the woman and mother God intended me to be.”
