About Interim House
Interim House provides long-term residential rehabilitation for men dealing with alcohol and substance addiction in Dorchester, Massachusetts. The service connects detox support, outpatient therapy, and stable housing, assisting residents in addressing homelessness, barriers from recent incarceration, and additional mental health conditions. Through guidance from trained staff, men can rebuild their routines, strengthen relationships within the community, and move forward with greater stability.
The center uses proven approaches including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), motivational interviewing, and mindfulness-based methods to help prevent relapse, along with medication-assisted treatment (MAT). Participants take part in both individual and group sessions, learn practical relapse prevention skills, and strengthen everyday life competencies that support sustained recovery. Care is focused on the individual as a whole, rather than only the addiction.
Men stay in a licensed recovery residence with 18 beds, featuring shared bedrooms and bathrooms. Staff prepare meals in a supportive environment designed to encourage trust, connection, and healing. The home is conveniently located near local services and public transportation, making it easier for residents to reach healthcare, education, and employment opportunities while reintegrating into society.
