A Men's Sober House on North Main Street

Reconciliation House keeps its group at seven men, most of them arriving directly from incarceration. Webster sits in the southern corner of Worcester County near the Connecticut border, a smaller town than the county seat but within reach of its services.

Serving Men Leaving Incarceration

The house serves men in recovery from addiction who have completed the Substance Options Treatment Program at the Worcester County House of Correction, and it accepts residents who are on parole, on probation, in the county's COAP program, or who have finished their sentence outright.

A Christian, Nonprofit Model

Reconciliation House operates as a nonprofit within a Christian environment, funded through grants, donations and the weekly rent residents pay. That funding mix is typical of faith-based reentry housing, which often relies on community support to keep fees within reach.

NARR Level II Certification

Certification through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing requires the house to publish a code of ethics, disclose fees and rules, and maintain a documented relapse and discharge policy.

Recovery Housing in Webster and Worcester County

Webster sits in Worcester County, and men reentering the community from the county's House of Correction have a direct path into Reconciliation House if they complete the required program first.

Reconciliation House embraces the Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous philosophy of recovery and requires residents to be active members in those programs. This sober living space, or sober home, is a culture of sobriety in a community of peers battling addiction. Journey House provides social support for sobriety along with experiential learning, where residents learn strategies to succeed in recovery. They facilitate community networking with programs, counseling, and resources.
