About this Recovery House

Restoration Recovery House is a men's sober living home in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, in Manitowoc County, run by Restoration Recovery as the founding house in its peer-based recovery housing program.

A Men's Sober House Built on Peer Support

This house runs on a peer-mentor model instead of a clinical staffing structure, with residents further along in recovery guiding those who are newer to it. Restoration Recovery describes the environment in terms of accountability and brotherhood, and the house's rules and daily rhythm are built around that peer relationship, not around outside case managers cycling through.

Founded on One Man's Recovery

Restoration Recovery's founder built the organization around his own history of sobriety, and Restoration Recovery House was the first property under that model. That founding story shows up in the house's day-to-day approach: expectations are set by someone who has lived through the same early months of recovery that current residents are navigating.

One of Three Manitowoc Sober Houses

Restoration Recovery runs two additional houses elsewhere in Manitowoc under the same organization. A resident who needs a different set of housemates, or who is ready for a different level of structure, can move between them without leaving the operator's system.

Financial Help for the First Month

Restoration Recovery maintains a scholarship fund covering up to five hundred dollars toward a resident's first month, available to residents who need financial help getting started. That kind of support directly addresses the period right after treatment ends, when income is often at its lowest and housing costs cannot wait.

Manitowoc's Place on the Lakeshore

Manitowoc is the seat of Manitowoc County, sitting on Lake Michigan between Milwaukee and Green Bay. The city carries a manufacturing-based job market alongside its courts and outpatient treatment providers, giving residents entry-level work options within reach of the house without a long commute.
