Jefferson House

Jefferson House offers residential treatment specifically designed for men working toward recovery from substance use disorders and alcohol use disorders. The program operates from their Detroit facility on East Jefferson Avenue, providing a structured environment where residents can focus entirely on their recovery work without external pressures.

The residential setting allows for intensive therapeutic work while building connections with other men in recovery. This peer support component proves essential for many residents as they develop new relationships based on sobriety rather than substance use.

The treatment approach at Jefferson House combines cognitive behavioral therapy with 12-step facilitation, giving residents multiple tools for understanding and changing their relationship with substances. CBT sessions help identify thought patterns and triggers that lead to substance use, while 12-step work provides a framework for ongoing recovery support.

This dual approach addresses both the psychological aspects of addiction and the community support elements that many find crucial for long-term sobriety. Residents learn practical skills they can apply immediately while also connecting with the broader recovery community through 12-step program involvement.

Jefferson House maintains CARF accreditation, demonstrating their commitment to meeting established standards for addiction treatment quality and safety. This accreditation provides assurance that the program meets rigorous criteria for staff qualifications, treatment protocols, and facility operations.

The facility's re-entry support services help residents prepare for the transition back to their communities after completing residential treatment. This support proves crucial for maintaining recovery momentum as men move from the structured residential environment back to their daily lives in Wayne County and the greater Detroit area.
