Sherman House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Sherman House is a men's sober living home in Akron, Ohio, certified by Ohio Recovery Housing and serving Summit County. CHC Addiction Services operates it as one of six certified residences the organization runs in the city.

One of Six CHC Addiction Services Sober Homes in Akron

CHC Addiction Services runs Sherman House alongside five other certified residences in Akron and two more across the county line in Dayton. A resident who needs to move between houses, for space or for a better fit, stays inside one system that already has that history on file.

Men's Sober Living at the Managed Level

The house serves men exclusively and holds four beds, small enough that residents recognize each other at house meetings and in the hallway. Certification sits at the Managed level, pairing peer leadership with staff oversight of daily household life.

Recovery Housing in an Industrial and Medical Akron

Akron built its economy on rubber manufacturing for most of the twentieth century, and Goodyear and Firestone both trace their roots to the city. That industrial base has given way to a medical and education economy anchored by Summa Health, Akron Children's Hospital and the University of Akron, all inside city limits.

What Managed-Level Certification Requires of This Recovery Home

A certified residence commits to a published code of ethics, states its fees and house rules in writing before anyone moves in, and keeps a written relapse and discharge policy on file. A complaint travels outside the house, to a process Ohio Recovery Housing administers independently of the operator.
