MHSA provides community-based shelter, nutrition, and recovery programs throughout Greater Boston to individuals and families in need, along with the life skills needed to build self-sufficiency to end homelessness, hunger and addiction.
Sullivan House is a 25-bed substance use disorder recovery home that has served adult men recovering from addiction for over 30 years. The program helps its residents reestablish and maintain a sober lifestyle while renewing their careers and following through on responsibilities to their families and communities. Sullivan House counselors are specially trained to address the unique needs of clients while employing appropriate, effective and lasting treatment strategies.
Following a two-week orientation process, clients typically spend the next five-and-a-half months working towards a variety of personal and programmatic goals, in accordance with house rules. While in the program, clients are given referrals to various medical, mental health and other professional service providers, as needed. Clients also attend AA meetings, group meetings and individual counseling while pursuing or maintaining meaningful employment.
Upon successful completion of the program, Sullivan House employees assist in placing clients into stable, sober living environments where they can continue to thrive as productive members of their individual networks and communities.
Participants must be 18+ years old and referred by an outside service provider (such as a detox program, CSS, TSS, court/criminal justice program or sober shelter). All potential clients must have their service provider contact our program staff to schedule an intake session and discuss the admissions process. For general inquiries, please send an e-mail to: info@MHSAinc.org.
