A Men's Sober House Near the University

This sober house in Minneapolis serves men in recovery from a residential property on 7th Street Southeast, a few blocks from the University of Minnesota's east bank campus. That location has typically drawn residents balancing coursework or a job near campus with early recovery, since class schedules, a part-time job and a meeting can all fall within walking distance.

Recovery Housing Outside the MASH Registry

Minnesota's certification program through the Minnesota Association of Sober Homes is voluntary, and University House does not currently appear on that registry. That is common among smaller, independently run houses in the state and is not evidence of anything about how the house operates.

Recovery Housing in Hennepin County

Minneapolis is the seat of Hennepin County, and the university area sits close to hospitals, outpatient treatment providers and Metro Transit's bus and light rail lines. A men's sober house in this part of the city keeps residents within reach of that full network of services.

Reaching University House

Because no current public website is active for this address, anyone interested in University House should confirm details directly, including whether the house is still accepting residents, what its house rules and fees are, and how it structures accountability for men balancing school, work and recovery.

University House came together when three friends in recovery finally located a property that could physically meet their goal for developing a dignified sober living environment.   Its ideal location in the heart of the University of Minnesota's residential area, just four blocks northwest of the U of M's Dinkytown retail area and the U of M Campus, prompted these three men to focus exclusively on current and prospective University students in recovery.  These men understand the perils of college life, especially for someone trying to recover from alcohol and drug addiction.
