About Charlestown Recovery House

Charlestown Recovery House in Charlestown, Massachusetts is a residential addiction treatment program for adult men. The program is part of the Gavin Foundation, a Boston-area nonprofit organization that offers a range of substance use treatment and education resources.

Recovery in a Structured Environment for Men

This is a treatment program where everything happens right at the center, and to me, that takes a lot of the stress out of recovery. You’ll go to your individual and group therapy sessions without needing to worry about driving or getting the bus.

Professional staff is available all day, every day, to help you stay focused on your recovery work. I think it’s notable that the program here is based on the 12 steps philosophy, so you’ll spend part of your time attending 12 step meetings on site.

Life in a Charlestown Recovery Home

Recovery takes time, and for most clients who come to this program, the stay is between four and six months. Rooms are semi-private and everyone shares the common areas, including a game and computer room, laundry room and secure outdoor space.

Support After Residential Addiction Treatment

I appreciate the level of support residents receive after finishing the program. You’ll have access to aftercare, which includes a recovery coach, and if you need it, moving into a sober living home. Charlestown Recovery House is close to public transportation, parks and the Bunker Hill Mall, giving you easy access to work and recreation during your stay.

Amenities

Private Rehab

Private drug rehab provides a comfortable, secure environment that allows you to focus on doing the work to ge...t your life back on track. Benefits include a higher staff-to-client ratio, increased one-on-one time with therapists and healthcare providers, private rooms for clients, and customized forms of therapy.

Residential Setting

Residential drug rehab provides the comforts of home with the therapeutic support needed to successfully recov...er. Benefits of an inpatient program include increased safety, a higher success rate, and the time and distance given to focus on recovery. Residential drug rehabs are often the preferred method of treatment, as they can be tailored to meet specific needs, offer focused therapeutic care, and provide the necessary tools to sustain recovery.

The first step to a drug-free future is detox. This involves slowly and safely ridding your body of all addict...ive substances, under 24/7 supervision. This is typically the initial phase of drug rehab in Massachusetts.

Outpatient Rehab

Massachusetts outpatient rehab does not have a defined timeline. The program is tailored to meet your recovery... needs, and may last 90 days or a year or more. During this time, you will attend therapy sessions and support group meetings, for ongoing accountability and development of sober-living skills.

Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP)

Partial hospitalization programs (PHPs) in Massachusetts provide many of the same treatment services as an inp...atient program, but you don’t have to stay overnight. PHPs often provide a bridge between inpatient and outpatient treatment.
