A New Beginning 3 Men's Sober House

About this Sober House

A New Beginning 3 is a men's sober living home on Vesta Road in Dorchester, Massachusetts, in Suffolk County. It holds MASH certification at NARR Level II and has capacity for seven residents.

Another Certified Unit on Vesta Road

A New Beginning 3 is the third certified men's unit the operator runs at this Vesta Road address, each keeping a separate group of seven residents. Running several smaller units on one property gives each group of men its own close-knit household.

What Certification Guarantees Here

NARR Level II certification through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing requires a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and house rules, and a documented relapse and discharge policy for every unit the operator runs, including this one.

One House in a Two-Address Program

Beyond its Vesta Road units, the operator also runs a set of women's units on Maple Street, also in Dorchester. A resident whose family includes both a man and a woman in recovery can work with one organization covering both addresses.

Recovery Housing in Dorchester and Suffolk County

Dorchester's concentration of meetings, outpatient care and transit connections makes it a workable base for sober housing, and A New Beginning 3 sits within that same established network.
