Devine Health Sober Living - Madison Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Devine Health Sober Living operates a sober living home in Madison, Wisconsin, the seat of Dane County.

A Sober Living Home in Wisconsin's Capital City

Madison carries a double role in Dane County: it is both the county seat and the state capital, which concentrates courts, state agencies and two major health systems, UW Health and UnityPoint Health-Meriter, inside one city. A sober living home based here sits closer to that combined footprint than almost anywhere else in the state, a real advantage for a resident juggling court dates, appointments and a job search at the same time.

What Certification Would Add, If Pursued

Devine Health Sober Living operates outside Wisconsin's voluntary certification system. The state's only certifying body is the Wisconsin Association of Sober Housing, the state affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences, and certification there is optional, not required. A house that has not pursued it is not thereby unregulated, since Wisconsin licenses no recovery residence directly. It simply means the house has not chosen to put its fees, rules and complaint process on record with an outside body, and a prospective resident should ask for that information directly instead.

Dane County's Transit and Campus Resources

Madison Metro runs a bus network across the city, and the University of Wisconsin-Madison, along with Madison College, sits inside the same city limits as most of the county's outpatient treatment providers. For someone rebuilding routine and work after treatment, that concentration of transit, education and healthcare in one place is unusual for a Wisconsin city outside Milwaukee.

Contacting Devine Health Sober Living

As a single-address operator, Devine Health Sober Living manages its own admissions. The relevant questions are the ones that apply to any Madison sober house: what the weekly rate covers, whether medication-assisted treatment is accepted, and how the house handles a relapse once someone has moved in.
