A Men's Sober House on Jouvette Street

This sober house in New Bedford serves men in recovery. Jouvette Street sits in a residential part of the city, within reach of New Bedford's public transit and its outpatient behavioral health providers, which cluster around the downtown and waterfront districts.

What Massachusetts Sober House Certification Establishes

Massachusetts leaves certification of sober homes voluntary, through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing, the state's NARR affiliate. A certified residence commits to a published code of ethics, discloses fees and rules in writing before move-in, and accepts outside complaint review. Certification is optional, so a house without it is not automatically a lesser one, but it does mean less of a public record exists to check in advance.

Recovery Housing in New Bedford and Bristol County

New Bedford is one of the larger cities in Bristol County and a historic fishing port with a working waterfront economy that still supports entry-level jobs close to the city center. Its concentration of hospitals and outpatient treatment providers draws recovery housing from smaller towns throughout the South Coast region.
