Prentice Place

Prentice Place operates as Chicago's dedicated sober living facility for adult men navigating the complex transition from incarceration to community life. Located in the Roseland neighborhood, the program recognizes that formerly incarcerated individuals face unique barriers when seeking traditional addiction treatment and recovery housing options.

The facility's specialized focus allows residents to connect with peers who share similar experiences, fostering a recovery community built on mutual understanding. This targeted approach helps address the isolation and stigma that often accompany both addiction recovery and reentry processes, creating space for authentic peer support relationships to develop.

Trauma counseling serves as the therapeutic cornerstone of Prentice Place's residential treatment model. The program acknowledges that residents typically carry multiple layers of trauma - from substance abuse histories to incarceration experiences - that require specialized clinical attention during the recovery process.

By integrating trauma-informed care with stable housing, Prentice Place creates conditions where residents can process past experiences while developing practical skills for long-term sobriety. This dual focus on healing and skill-building prepares participants for successful community reintegration beyond their sober living experience.

Prentice Place maintains operations seven days a week from 8 AM to 8 PM, providing consistent access to support services throughout each week. This extended schedule recognizes that recovery needs don't follow traditional business hours, particularly for residents managing the additional complexities of reentry.

The comprehensive operating schedule allows for flexibility in programming while ensuring that residents have access to guidance during evening and weekend hours when many other recovery services may be unavailable. This accessibility supports continuity of care during critical moments in the recovery journey.
