Why It Works

The Men’s Center residential program model has proven successful because:

• We provide housing that allows men to live in a safe, supportive community during their recovery.
  
• Residents participate in a 12-Step program, widely recognized for success in maintaining long-term sobriety.
  
• Residents have a sponsor to help them in their recovery.
  
• The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Service Administration reports that employment is key to recovery, and work is a requirement of The Men’s Center program.
  
• The program is affordable. Not everyone can afford treatment or has insurance. We provide needed support for those without means who are seeking sobriety.
  
• We do not limit the time a man may stay at The Men’s Center. We give each man the time he needs to recover.
  
• The Men’s Center is optimally located on Houston’s Main Street transportation corridor.
  
• Men in recovery can easily access public transit to get to work in almost any area of the city.
