The Wenham House

The Northshore's Premier Sober Living House for Men: Embracing the 12 Steps to Lasting Recovery

76 Topsfield Road, Wenham Massachusetts

Our Mission

Our non-profit is dedicated to assisting individuals struggling with alcoholism or addiction, just as we were supported on our own journeys to recovery

The Wenham House was founded by committed men with years of sobriety, and recognize a 12 step recovery as being the most effective way to achieve continuous sobriety.

We have made an important and intentional decision about the kind of recovery experience we wish to provide our guests. We rely solely on the Twelve Steps. We don’t dilute our sober living program by offering clinical or medical services that other addiction treatment centers use to access funding from insurance providers.

Support Our Mission

The Wenham House relies on charitable donations to continue supporting individuals in need of addiction recovery. We kindly invite those who are able to contribute to support our mission. As a nonprofit organization, your donations are tax-deductible.
