HAWC Foundation Phase 2 - Men's House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

HAWC Foundation Phase 2 is a men's sober living home on 5th Avenue in Huntington, West Virginia, in Cabell County. It is certified by the West Virginia Alliance of Recovery Residences and operated by HAWC Foundation, which runs ten certified recovery residences across the city. The house takes five men, all of them graduates of the foundation's Phase 1 program.

A Men's Sober House on 5th Avenue

Five beds makes this one of the smaller HAWC recovery homes, and the size shows up in how the household runs. Everyone knows everyone. 5th Avenue is one of Huntington's main east to west corridors, running from downtown out past Marshall University, which puts the address within walking distance of the courthouse district and on the Tri-State Transit Authority routes that most residents use before a car is realistic. The program fee is $100 a week.

What Phase 2 Recovery Housing Means Here

Admission is restricted to men who have completed HAWC's Phase 1. That single rule tells a prospective resident what the house is for. Nobody arrives here from the street or straight out of detox, and the household is built around people who have already held a period of structured sobriety and are working toward independent living. Someone starting from zero would apply to Phase 1 first and reach this address later.

Medication-Assisted Treatment in This Huntington Sober Living Home

Residents taking Vivitrol, Sublocade, Suboxone or methadone are accepted. Huntington has prescribers and a methadone clinic inside the city limits, so a man living here can keep an appointment without leaving Cabell County. Recovery housing that rejects prescribed medication for opioid use disorder often costs a resident their treatment along with their bed, and this residence does not force that choice.

Cabell County Recovery Homes and the Huntington Grid

Huntington is the seat of Cabell County and the anchor of the tri-state corner where West Virginia, Ohio and Kentucky meet. Its avenue grid makes distances legible: the hospital, the university, the courthouse, the transit hub and most of the county's outpatient providers sit within a few numbered avenues of each other. For a man rebuilding a schedule that includes work, a probation appointment and a weekly meeting, that compactness is the practical argument for Huntington recovery housing over a rural placement.
