About this Recovery House
M.A.M.A.'s House is a women's sober living home on Troost Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri, in Jackson County. It has operated since 2017 and holds certification through the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, making it one of the certified sober houses in the Kansas City area.
A Women's Sober House on Troost Avenue
M.A.M.A.'s House, short for Mothers Achieving the Master's Agenda, serves women only, and its name signals what the program is built around: many residents are mothers working to rebuild both their sobriety and their family life at once. Troost Avenue is a major north-south corridor through Kansas City, giving residents direct access to bus service and to services throughout the urban core without depending on a car.
What NARR Accreditation Establishes
Accreditation through the National Alliance for Recovery Residences commits a house to a published code of ethics, written disclosure of fees and rules before move-in, a written relapse and discharge policy, and an external complaint process. For M.A.M.A.'s House, that record is the clearest signal available to a prospective resident or family member that the house operates under outside standards.
Staff Trained in Recovery Support and Medication-Assisted Treatment
The house is staffed by people holding Recovery Support Specialist credentials, and many of them are trained specifically in medication-assisted treatment, which matters for any resident whose recovery plan includes a prescribed medication for opioid or alcohol use disorder. Residents connect to counseling, therapy and support groups through the nearby Wayne D. White Recovery Community Center.
Built With Community and Church Support
M.A.M.A.'s House opened in December 2017 with sponsorship from Christian Fellowship Baptist Church and DAVE's Place Community Impact Center. That backing gives the house a community base beyond its own walls, and it reflects a model common in Kansas City recovery housing: a residence built and sustained by local institutions.
Recovery Housing in Kansas City and Jackson County
Kansas City is the largest city in Jackson County, though the county seat is Independence, and the metro area concentrates the region's hospitals, courts and employers along corridors like Troost Avenue. A certified women's sober house in this stretch of the city puts residents within reach of the Wayne D. White Recovery Community Center, outpatient providers, and public transit that reaches most of the urban core.
