Claude's House #1 Men's Sober House

About this Sober House

Claude's House #1 is a men's sober living home on Derby Street in Revere, Massachusetts, in Suffolk County. It is operated by Claude's House and certified through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing.

A Men's Sober House on Derby Street

Nine men live at this Revere address, run under the direction of a house director with a decade of psychiatric nursing experience. That background shapes how the house handles day-to-day friction among residents, though the house itself is not a medical provider: residents are expected to manage their own medications, hygiene and mobility.

What Comes With a Room at Claude's House

Utilities are included at every unit: central air, heat, electricity, gas and water. Residents get wifi, a television in the common area, and coin-operated laundry with the dryer cost covered. New residents receive linens, towels and a welcome care package on arrival, a detail the operator publishes as part of what separates its houses from an unfurnished rental.

What MASH Certification Establishes

Certification through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing commits the house to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and rules before move-in, a relapse and discharge policy, and an outside complaint process. That record is what separates a certified men's sober house from an unregulated rooming arrangement.
