Dismas Home

About Dismas Home

Dismas Home is a sober living operator in Manchester, New Hampshire, providing certified recovery housing in Hillsborough County for justice-involved women.

A Statewide Nonprofit Rooted in Manchester

Dismas Home has run its recovery program from Manchester since 2016, built specifically for women transitioning out of incarceration. The organization pairs housing with round-the-clock staffing, including licensed drug and alcohol counselors and mental health professionals, treating housing as one part of a larger reentry plan instead of the whole of it.

Certification Through NHPRR

Dismas Home's housing is certified by the New Hampshire Partnership for Recovery Residences, obliging the organization to disclose its fees and rules in writing and to accept an outside complaint process.

State-Funded Recovery Housing for Justice-Involved Women

Dismas Home receives support through New Hampshire's Department of Health and Human Services, Bureau of Drug and Alcohol Services, a public funding relationship uncommon among private recovery housing operators in the state.

Growth Beyond Manchester

The organization has said it intends to extend its program to Rochester on the Seacoast, a sign that its reentry-focused model is drawing demand beyond its original city.

Reaching Dismas Home

Referrals and applications go through Dismas Home directly, and the organization works with the state's justice and corrections systems as part of its intake process.
