A Men's Sober House on Cole Avenue Southeast

This sober house in Minneapolis serves men in recovery from a residential property on Cole Avenue Southeast. The location sits within the Cooper and Prospect Park corridor southeast of the University of Minnesota campus, an area with a mix of long-term residential streets and easy access to the city's core. A house of this kind draws on Minneapolis's transit network to get residents to work or appointments without requiring a car in the first months of recovery.

Recovery Housing Outside the MASH Registry

Minnesota certifies recovery residences through the Minnesota Association of Sober Homes, but certification is voluntary under state law. Act 2 Recovery Residences does not currently appear on that registry, which is common among smaller, independently run houses and says nothing about how the house itself is managed day to day. A prospective resident can still ask directly about house rules, staffing and how disputes get handled.

Recovery Housing in Hennepin County

Minneapolis is both the city and the seat of Hennepin County, and Southeast Minneapolis in particular sits close to hospitals, outpatient treatment providers and the county's human services offices. A men's sober house in this part of the city puts residents within reach of the county's largest concentration of recovery resources.

Applying to Act 2 Recovery Residences

Applications go directly to the owner of Act 2 Recovery Residences. Questions worth asking before moving in include how bedrooms are assigned, what the weekly or monthly cost covers, and how the house handles a relapse, since none of that is standardized by an outside certifying body for a house not on the MASH list.
