Men's Sober Living in Washington, District of Columbia

Most men's homes in Washington don't publish a price online. Call the intake line for a current figure — the monthly fee usually covers a bed, utilities and the house's structure — and ask about scholarships or sliding-scale rates.

MAT policies vary and aren't always listed. If you're on Suboxone, methadone or Vivitrol, ask each home directly before committing — a supportive home welcomes the question.

Structured (supervised) homes add a curfew, required recovery meetings, random drug and alcohol testing, chores, written house rules and a house manager on site or on call. Searches for a "halfway house" or "3/4 house" in Washington are often really looking for this kind of structured sober living; the difference is that halfway houses are usually time-limited and agency-referred, while you can typically contact a sober living home directly.

Call the intake line of any home above — there is no application fee to use this directory and no middleman. Ask about current openings, move-in requirements, the rules and the expected length of stay. If a home is full, ask them to recommend a nearby opening.
