Woodland House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Woodland House is a men's sober living home on Woodland Avenue in Kansas City, Missouri, in Jackson County. It is one of five men's houses run by Pieces Peace's Traditional Housing Program in the city.

A Men's Sober House on Woodland Avenue

Woodland Avenue is one of the named north-south avenues that structure Kansas City's historic east side, near the 18th and Vine district where the operator keeps its office. Woodland House holds men to a shared set of expectations, with communal space and house meetings that everyone in the building attends.

Five Men's Houses Under One Operator

Pieces Peace's Traditional Housing Program splits its nine Kansas City properties between five men's houses and three women's houses, and Woodland House is part of the larger men's group. That structure gives residents room to move to a different house within the same organization if the fit at Woodland House is not quite right.

Living in Kansas City's Jackson County

Jackson County's largest city and its county seat, Independence, both fall within reach of Woodland House, and Kansas City itself carries the bulk of the region's treatment providers, courts and job opportunities. That concentration is part of why the operator has concentrated its housing network here.

How Missouri Certification Works

Missouri does not mandate sober house certification. The Missouri Coalition of Recovery Support Providers runs the state's voluntary program, and a Kansas City sober house's standing with residents typically rests on its own track record more than that single list.
