About Westport House
Located 45 miles north of New York City in Fairfield County Connecticut, Westport House is a premier provider of two distinct levels of aftercare for men: extended care and sober living.
Westport House Extended Care is designed to support the recovery process for young males as they transition from a higher level of care to sober living. Westport House blends the transformational power of experiential activities and physical fitness & recreation with work, school and traditional clinical services to establish a supportive environment in which clients can practice independent life-skill management and other recovery skills after they complete primary treatment.
Westport House Sober Living is for male clients of any age who do not require the initial structure and support of extended care while having access to sophisticated clinical services, employment and academic support, health and recreational activities, and much more. The cost of sober living is approximately half that of extended care.
