Faith And Peace Afh - Brown Deer Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Faith And Peace Afh is a sober living home in Brown Deer, Wisconsin, in Milwaukee County, run as a licensed adult family home by its operator of the same name. It sits in the 53209 ZIP code, and as with every Wisconsin recovery residence, its street is not published; anyone applying confirms the address directly with the operator.

A Recovery Residence Licensed as an Adult Family Home

Wisconsin licenses small residential settings like this one as adult family homes, a category that covers housing for people who need more support than an ordinary rental but not a hospital bed. A recovery residence running under that license still counts as recovery housing under Wisconsin's framework: what matters is that people live there, not the label on the license.

A Brown Deer Address Just North of Milwaukee

Brown Deer is a small village bordering the city of Milwaukee, and its residents share the county's bus routes, courts and outpatient providers. A recovery residence here sits close enough to Milwaukee's services to use them daily while keeping the quieter footprint of a suburban village.

Certification and Registration in Wisconsin

Wisconsin does not license sober living homes as a category separate from other licensed residential settings. Certification is available voluntarily through the Wisconsin Association of Sober Housing (WASH), and the state Department of Health Services keeps a separate, self-attested recovery residence registry. Neither list being silent on this specific house is evidence of anything.

Recovery Housing in Milwaukee County

Brown Deer sits inside Milwaukee County, and its residents draw on the same county-wide network of treatment providers, courts and transit that serves the city itself. A licensed adult family home in a smaller village like Brown Deer often means a quieter setting with the same access.

What to Ask Before Applying

Confirm what the licensed capacity is, what the weekly or monthly fee covers, whether staff are on site around the clock, and whether residents on medication for opioid use disorder are accepted.
