The Lois House Recovery House

About this Recovery House

The Lois House is a sober living home in Waukesha, Wisconsin, in Waukesha County, operated by Wishope Inc. as part of its recovery housing program across the region.

A Sober House Operated by Wishope Inc.

The Lois House is one of the recovery homes Wishope Inc. describes as part of a network it supervises and manages throughout Wisconsin. Wishope is a peer-run recovery community organization, and the housing runs on peer support and structure, with outpatient treatment left to providers elsewhere in Waukesha County.

Peer Support Behind This Waukesha Sober Living Home

Wishope has trained peer recovery coaches and built its identity around lived experience, which shapes how a house like this one runs day to day. A resident is supported by someone who has been through recovery personally.

Waukesha County Recovery Housing

Waukesha is the seat of Waukesha County and one of the larger population centers in southeastern Wisconsin, giving residents at The Lois House access to the county's employers, courts, and outpatient services without needing to travel into Milwaukee.

Wishope's Recovery Coach Training and Community Resources

Beyond housing, Wishope runs a five-day Recovery Coach Training program and operates Recovery Community Centers, including one in Waukesha. A resident at The Lois House has access to that same network of programming, not housing alone.
