Myers Place Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Myers Place is a men's sober living home in Riverton, Utah, in Salt Lake County, run through the Foundation for Family Life's MentorWorks program.

A Men's House Anchoring a Mentorship Program

Myers Place houses men who are working through MentorWorks, a Foundation for Family Life program built for people transitioning out of incarceration. The house provides the fixed address the rest of the program depends on, while a personal mentor helps each resident work toward employment and a longer-term plan.

Employment and Mentorship Alongside Housing

The Foundation for Family Life connects MentorWorks participants to jobs through Wasatch Staffing, a business partner focused on placing people with barriers to employment. Pairing that access with a mentor and a stable house address addresses three of the biggest risks after release from custody at once: no job, no housing and no one checking in.

How Utah Licenses This Housing

Utah requires recovery residences to hold a license from the Utah Department of Health and Human Services Office of Licensing, under Utah Code 26B-2-117 and the Recovery Residence Services rule, with no tiered certification and a single regulator statewide.

Riverton and the Southwestern Salt Lake Valley

Riverton has grown quickly as part of the southwestern Salt Lake Valley, and it sits within commuting distance of the county's larger employment centers while remaining a smaller, quieter city than Salt Lake City proper. That balance suits a reentry program built around steady work and a low-stress place to live.

Three Houses Under One MentorWorks Program

Myers Place is one of three Riverton residences the Foundation for Family Life operates, along with Redwood Place and Vine Recovery Residence, all run under the same mentor-based model.
