About this Sober House

Fatherhood House, in Providence, Rhode Island, is a certified recovery residence for men in Providence County. RICARES lists Fatherhood House on its certified house roster under the operator Amos House, at NARR Level 2.

Fathers Working Toward Custody

Fatherhood House carries the housing side of the Amos House Fatherhood Program. That program supports fathers with a history of substance use who are trying to establish visitation with their children, increase visitation they already have, or reach joint or full custody. Amos House built the program around the legal obstacles those fathers meet, and describes a system that does not always favor fathers who need a second chance. The agency names its two reunification programs among the most vital work it does, for what they change in the next generation.

Certification of Fatherhood House

The RICARES roster records Fatherhood House as a certified men's residence in Providence at NARR Level 2. RICARES is the Rhode Island affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences and the agency the state names as its certifier. Certification in Rhode Island is voluntary, so a house on the roster has chosen that review.
