History and Recovery Model

Recovery Houses of Rochester was founded in November 2002.

Its founder and executive director started Recovery Houses of Rochester after noticing the absence of sober living facilities for men, particularly men of color, who may also have a co-occurring mental health condition. Originally, Recovery Houses of Rochester employed and strictly adhered to the Oxford House model. However, after its first year in operation Recovery Houses of Rochester transitioned to a peer-based model of recovery.
