Our purpose is to bring male alcoholics and drug addicts into recovery and to assist them in becoming sober, productive members of the community. This process involves providing a safe haven free of drugs and alcohol, supporting healthy lifestyles, creating opportunities for meaningful change, providing guidance and advice; and assisting our residents in finding jobs. We introduce our residents to the principles and practices of the 12-Step program (AA, NA, etc.), 12-Step meetings, 12-Step sponsors and other role models from the recovery community while providing them a supervised transition to sobriety. The Briggs House is a Level I Recovery House for men who have abstained from drugs and alcohol for at least 6 months. It is a peer-run, democratically run residential facility.
