The Basics
Recovering Matters serves men and women in gender-specific housing in Houston, Texas. RM offers an array of amenities and all the comforts of home while also providing structure through the 12 steps. With two comfortable homes in suburban Houston, RM helps those in recovery from alcohol and drug addiction transition from inpatient recovery into lives of long-term sobriety.
Accommodations and Amenities
RM serves male and female clients separately, each with their own home in suburban neighborhoods outside Houston. The women’s house can accommodate 10 clients while the men’s has 12 beds. Available amenities in both houses include satellite HDTV in the spacious living rooms, WiFi internet, on-site laundry and a fully equipped and stocked kitchen.
Homes are furnished comfortably with contemporary furniture, and basic groceries are provided for both houses. Residents also enjoy gym membership, access to yoga classes, daily meditation and participation in a sober softball league. A large staff of young people in recovery is available 24 hours a day in case of emergency and transportation to 12-step meetings is provided as needed.
Rules and Regulations
In order to live in the RM homes, both men and women must comply with a set of rules. Clients must make at least a 90-day commitment and be actively participating in a 12-step program, either attending meetings on-site or in the community. Residents must also interview with a member of the staff to fully evaluate how they will incorporate the 12-steps into their daily lives.
A typical day involves morning meditation, daily on-site 12-step meetings, evening wrap-up and on-site urinalysis testing. All the staff are well-versed in AA/NA recovery, and seek to inspire clients to create happy and fulfilled lives without drugs or alcohol.
Extras
Beyond the structured living environment and the comfortable accommodations, RM homes include off-site gym memberships, recovery yoga classes and softball tournaments with other residents.
In Summary
In all, Recovering Matters is an affordable sober environment for both men and women in residential Houston. With two gender-specific homes and a compassionate staff, those looking for traditional 12-step recovery and fellowship will find RM a good fit.
