A Men's Sober House in Wrentham

This sober house serves men in recovery with staff on site around the clock, a level of coverage that gives residents support outside normal business hours, not just during the day.

A Family-Founded Nonprofit Recovery Home

Gilly's House operates as a nonprofit, and its bedrooms and common spaces are decorated by families who have lost loved ones to addiction. That model turns the house into a living memorial as well as a residence, and it funds an annual community fundraiser called Summerfest.

What MASH Certification Establishes

Certification through MASH, the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, requires a published code of ethics, disclosed fees and rules before move-in, and an outside complaint process. It places the house at NARR Level II, with a manager and staff on site around the clock.

A Town-Supported Sober House in Norfolk County
