About this Recovery Home

Bright House Lakewood is a men's sober living home in Lakewood, Washington, in Pierce County, operated by Bright Hearts & Souls. It holds Level 2 certification through WAQRR, the Washington Alliance for Quality Recovery Residences.

A Men's Sober House in Lakewood

Bright House Lakewood serves men only, and admission requires at least sixty days of sobriety or a completed treatment program, along with a clean urinalysis at move-in. Residents on medication-assisted treatment are accepted, provided they can self-administer, and the house does not accept registered sex offenders.

WAQRR Level 2 Certification

Level 2 certification means Bright House Lakewood operates under a published code of ethics, discloses its fees and house rules in writing before move-in, and can be the subject of a complaint reviewed outside the house itself. Bright Hearts & Souls does not publish a street address for this location, which is common practice among Washington's WAQRR-listed homes.

Structure and Daily Support

Residents get furnished rooms, utilities, breakfast and lunch, Wi-Fi and laundry access, along with staff coaching, counseling referrals and life skills training covering budgeting and resume writing. The house keeps Narcan on site and uses a tech-assisted program to help residents track recovery goals.

Placement Through the Operator

Placement runs through Bright Hearts & Souls, which also operates a second certified men's home in Chehalis. Anyone applying should confirm the current sober-time requirement, the weekly fee, and whether a bed is available before making the trip.
