Edwina Martin House Brockton

Edwina Martin House has served women in Brockton since 1982, and its residential program is built around structure, safety and steady support rather than quick fixes. Women live on site while they work on substance use and the practical pieces of daily life that go with it, and staff guide the pace of each stay. The house keeps its focus on helping residents steady themselves, plan for relapse prevention and connect with people and services they can lean on afterward.

The program is intentionally small. The center has between 16 and 30 beds, and the residential program accommodates a maximum of 21 women, which allows for individual attention. Care is gender-specific, so the entire environment is shaped around women's experiences and needs, including pregnancy and early parenting.

Once a woman completes the residential portion, she can move into one of two transitional homes, Blake House or Paul F. McDevitt House, where sober living supports the return to daily routines. That stage preserves a degree of structure as she shoulders more responsibility and remains connected to people who offer support. Few rehab centers in Massachusetts bring a 30-day residential stay and sober living together as this Edwina Martin House Brockton program does.

Edwina Martin House Brockton programs

Edwina Martin House Brockton offers a 30-day residential rehab Massachusetts families can consider for women-only care. The clinical work is evidence-based with a strong Twelve Step thread. Residents take part in one-on-one counseling and family therapy, and medication-assisted treatment is available alongside Motivational Interviewing and psychoeducation. Seeking Safety gives women structured tools for trauma, and Twelve Step Facilitation helps those who want a meeting-based recovery. Nutrition counseling, meditation and mindfulness, and yoga round out the week.

Overdose prevention training and education for family members are also named among the services described by the center. Because sober living comes after the residential phase, a woman completing the 30-day program can move into a transitional home rather than go straight back to the environment she left. When more time is needed, the two transitional houses allow her to continue with sober living after the residential stay. Among drug rehab centers in Massachusetts serving only women, this Brockton facility combines a 30-day residential stay with two sober living houses.

The setting and time in care in Brockton

Edwina Martin House Brockton is a 30-day residential rehab Massachusetts families can consider for women-only care. Stays run about 30 days, and the house holds between 16 and 30 beds, with the residential program capped at 21 women and space for two infants. Rooms are air-conditioned, there is an outdoor lounge, and yoga is part of the weekly rhythm. Services are offered in English. If a woman is pregnant or caring for a newborn, then the two infant spaces at this Brockton facility make a residential stay possible in a way many rehabs in Massachusetts cannot.

Paying for treatment in Brockton

The center lists cash rates as its private pay option in SAMHSA's FindTreatment.gov data, and the listing does not spell out which insurance plans it takes. Coverage shifts from plan to plan, so the helpline can help you call and ask about your specific policy before anything is decided. When you call about the Edwina Martin House Brockton program, then ask which insurers the center bills and what a self-pay month costs so the numbers are clear up front. If you rely on MassHealth, checking with the center directly is the only way to know whether your plan is accepted. That call commits you to nothing.
