Bedford Street Men's Sober House

About this Sober House

Bedford Street is a men's sober living home in Bridgewater, Massachusetts, in Plymouth County. Journey House operates it as one of two men's houses it runs in Bridgewater, and the property carries NARR Level II certification through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing with room for 16 residents.

A Men's Sober House on Bedford Street

Bedford Street houses men only, so the rules, meetings and shared spaces are written for one population and nobody in the house is the odd one out. A house manager lives on site and oversees the household day to day.

NARR Level II Sober Living Certification and What It Requires

Certification through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing commits Bedford Street to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and rules before move-in, and a complaint process an outside body can review. Level II describes exactly the model Bedford Street runs: a manager on site, structured expectations, and clinical treatment handled by outpatient providers away from the house.

Weekly Structure at This Bridgewater Sober House

Residents attend three twelve-step meetings a week plus the house's own daily meeting, keep a sponsor, and submit to urine testing twice weekly. Chores rotate through the house, and everyone works toward something productive, whether a job, a day program or volunteering.

Who This Sober House Serves

Journey House built Bedford Street for men finishing residential treatment, stepping down from outpatient care, leaving incarceration, or choosing sober living as an alternative to formal treatment.
