About Recovery Community Development (RCD)

Recovery Community Development (RCD) provides affordable, supportive sober living and recovery housing options in Connecticut, with a mission focused on creating safe, sustainable environments where individuals can build stability and maintain long-term recovery. Based in Bridgeport and serving surrounding communities, Recovery Community Development (RCD) develops and manages recovery residences designed to help people strengthen independence, rebuild daily routines, and stay connected to the peer support that makes recovery possible.

RCD’s housing model emphasizes real-life structure in a community setting—an approach many people seek after treatment or during early recovery. Residents benefit from living in a drug- and alcohol-free home where accountability, respectful community standards, and consistent expectations support progress over time. Through its Connecticut locations, RCD offers recovery-focused housing that aims to be both accessible and practical, helping remove common barriers to stable sober living such as cost and limited availability.

One of RCD’s Bridgeport residences is Brooks Street House, a co-ed sober house with separate living spaces for men and women. The operator notes that the Brooks Street property includes single-room accommodations and was refurbished to expand capacity and improve the living environment—supporting residents with a safe place to focus on recovery goals while staying connected to local community resources.

Recovery Community Development (RCD) also highlights a broader continuum of support tied to recovery stability, including opportunity-building efforts such as job-related resources and community support connections. While each resident’s path looks different, structured sober living and peer support can play an important role in helping people practice healthy routines, strengthen coping skills, and maintain engagement with recovery communities in Bridgeport and beyond.

Key elements commonly associated with RCD’s recovery housing approach include:
