Coastal Wellness Centers Coed Sober House

About this Sober House

Coastal Wellness Centers is a coed sober house in East Providence, Rhode Island, in Providence County, on Waterman Avenue.

A Coed House in a Mostly Single-Gender State

Most certified recovery residences in Rhode Island take men only or women only. Coastal Wellness Centers is one of the few that RICARES certifies as coed, which matters for couples, for people who do not want to be separated from a partner in early recovery, and for anyone who simply prefers a mixed household.

Certification at NARR Level 2

RICARES certified the Coastal Wellness RI residence in East Providence on 20 June 2024 at NARR Level 2. A Level 2 residence is monitored, with a house manager or senior resident, documented house rules and peer accountability built into daily life. RICARES is both Rhode Island's NARR affiliate and the certifying body the state designates.

The Only Certified Residence in East Providence

East Providence appears once on the RICARES certified roster, and Coastal Wellness Centers is that entry. Anyone searching for certified recovery housing inside the city is looking at a list of one, and the nearest alternatives are across the river in Providence or north in Pawtucket.

Waterman Avenue and the Two-State Corridor

East Providence sits across the Seekonk River from Providence and runs up to the Massachusetts line, with Seekonk and Rehoboth immediately east. That position puts residents of Coastal Wellness Centers within reach of meetings, outpatient programs and employers on both sides of the state border, while Waterman Avenue keeps the house on a residential stretch of the city.
