About this Sober House
Recovery Up Front is a men's sober living home on Front Street in Weymouth, Massachusetts, in Norfolk County. It holds MASH certification at NARR Level II and has capacity for 11 residents.
A Men's Sober House on Front Street
Recovery Up Front serves men who have already attained abstinence and want a structured, supportive home to maintain it. Front Street sits near Weymouth's waterfront corridor, with onsite parking and a spot on a public transportation route.
Zero Tolerance and Financial Independence
The house holds a strict standard: no drugs, alcohol, violence, threats, fighting, theft or curfew violations. Residents are expected to be financially self-supporting, working, attending school or serving the community, and each resident takes on an assigned weekly or daily chore around the house.
Required 12-Step Participation
Every resident is required to attend weekly 12-step meetings, a standard the operator treats as non-negotiable. That requirement keeps residents connected to a recovery community outside the house, not just to the structure inside it.
NARR Level II Certification
Certification through the Massachusetts Alliance for Sober Housing requires Recovery Up Front to publish a code of ethics, disclose fees and rules, and maintain a documented relapse and discharge policy.
