Square One
Square One DE, Inc, was founded in 2016 as a 501c3 non-profit. We offer a “safe, sober, and healthy living environment that promotes recovery from alcohol, drug use and associated problems.” We provide a community-based environment without State or Federal funding to initiate and sustain recovery from alcohol and other non-prescribed drug use to encourage improvement in one’s physical, mental, spiritual and social wellbeing.
Our mission is to provide a faith-based residential support environment for individuals with substance abuse; while empowering them to become productive self sufficient members of society.
Square One DE, Inc. was the brain child of Shane McCarty and David Baugh. Shane deals with addiction on a daily basis as a Law Enforcement Officer. He identified a need that was not being fulfilled and reached out to his good friend David, an Intake Director at Teen Challenge to share his vision. They put their experience together, completed a business plan and within a few short months they were off and running; purchasing their first sober living home in Seaford, DE. In March of 2020 we will open our fifth recovery house. We have been blessed by several "Angel Donors" to help us achieve our goals.
