Faith House #2 Men's Sober House

About this Sober House

Faith House #2 is a men's sober living home on Virginia Street in Dorchester, Massachusetts, in Suffolk County. It is one of eight houses operated by Faith House and carries Level II certification from the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing.

A Men's Sober House in Upham's Corner

Faith House #2 sits in Upham's Corner, a historic commercial hub inside Dorchester with its own MBTA bus connections and a walkable stretch of shops and services. The house serves men only, following the same single-gender structure Faith House runs at each of its eight properties.

House Amenities and Weekly Structure

Faith House keeps the same core setup at Virginia Street as at its other houses: an on-site house manager, a weekly house meeting, weekly drug testing and on-site laundry, with MBTA access built into the location rather than an afterthought.

Level II Certification

The Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing certifies Faith House #2 at Level II, which commits the operator to a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules before move-in, and an outside complaint process.

Two Houses on the Same Street

Faith House runs a second house nearby on Virginia Street, Faith House #3, at a different house number. The operator lists the two separately rather than treating them as one combined property, which means a resident here has a neighboring option under the same operator if a transfer ever makes sense.

Recovery Housing in Upham's Corner

Upham's Corner has long been a center of Dorchester's Cape Verdean and Latino communities, with services and transit that support daily life without a car. Suffolk County recovery housing in this pocket of the city benefits from that density.
