Ohio Governor Mike DeWine Mandates Statewide Certification for Recovery Housing Operators

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine has signed an executive order empowering the Ohio Department of Behavioral Health to establish a statewide certification program for recovery housing operators. This action comes in response to a significant increase in recovery houses, which have grown by nearly 400% to over 1,700 facilities since 2022. The rapid expansion has led to concerns about inadequate oversight and substandard living conditions in some uncertified homes, particularly in southern Ohio, a region heavily affected by the opioid epidemic. State Representative Justin Pizzulli highlighted instances of severe neglect, including unsanitary conditions and overcrowding, in facilities meant to aid individuals in recovery.

Ohio Faces Persistent Storms and Derecho Risks

Ohio Faces Persistent Storms and Derecho Risks

Ohio has been experiencing a series of strong storms since August 10, with heavy rain saturating the ground and compounding damage between events. A derecho, a widespread windstorm with gusts of at least 58 mph and a damage path over 240 miles, is a significant risk in the region due to Ohio's location along a major derecho corridor in the Ohio Valley. Governor DeWine has requested expedited federal damage assessments to address the ongoing impacts. Cooler and drier weather is expected briefly after the weekend, but another system may arrive midweek, continuing the pattern of unsettled weather. Federal disaster-response systems, including FEMA, are under strain due to budget cuts, which could affect recovery timelines. (Source: EcoFlow, Source time: Tue, 01 Sep 2026 03:00:00 GMT)
