Established in Port Coquitlam, Prairie House proudly holds the title of InnerVisions' second treatment center. Following in the successful footsteps of the original Miller House, Prairie House quickly evolved into a highly effective and well-respected recovery program. For over a decade, it has served as the flagship for men seeking treatment for drug and alcohol addiction at InnerVisions.
Those who have experienced Prairie House, both past and present clients, describe it as more than just a facility. It's a clean and comfortable environment where the values of trust and respect are deeply ingrained in the culture, fostered by both staff and residents. The physical space itself spans two buildings, providing ample room for a range of amenities that support the recovery journey. These include an industrial kitchen where nutritious meals are prepared, a spacious group therapy room for shared healing, a large dining area for communal meals, open common areas for relaxation and connection, a TV room for leisure time, staff offices for administrative and support services, and even free weights for those looking to incorporate exercise into their routine.
Prairie House goes beyond offering just a physical space; it provides a supportive community and a comprehensive program that empowers men to reclaim their lives from addiction.
After years of helping men get sober, Kim and Billy felt they needed to bring the InnerVisions’ model of recovery to women as well. Together they fought hard to open a women’s treatment centre, and finally in 2002 their efforts came to fruition when Hannah House opened its doors.
Miller House opened its doors in 1991 when Billy and Kim managed to scrape together enough money for half a month’s rent. It is the house where the founders of InnerVisions first saw their shared dream to create a safe place for addicts materialize.
