My Father's House Nashville

About My Father's House Nashville

My Father's House Nashville is a sober living operator in Nashville, Tennessee, running one certified men's recovery residence in Davidson County for fathers.

A Recovery Housing Provider Focused on Fatherhood

The operator's mission centers on men coming out of institutions or homelessness who are also navigating their role as fathers, combining shelter with parenting education and help through the child support system.

Leadership With Lived Experience

Founder Thomas Gooch graduated from Davidson County Drug Court and has fifteen years in drug treatment and harm reduction; co-founder Ron W. Sisney Sr. is a retired public transportation operator with more than twenty years in recovery himself.

TN-ARR Certified and TDOC Approved

My Father's House Nashville holds certification through the Tennessee Alliance of Recovery Residences and is approved by the Tennessee Department of Correction, a dual recognition that supports referrals from both the recovery and corrections systems.

Not a Faith-Based Program

The operator states directly that it is not a faith-based program, relying instead on self-care meetings such as NA and AA, employment expectations and a set of admission criteria applied to every man who enters.

Serving Davidson County Fathers

The operator works from Nashville, giving fathers exiting Davidson County's courts and shelters a recovery housing option connected to the same city where their custody and visitation cases are typically being handled.
