Tharros offers a highly supportive and structured peer support program to help clients take ownership of their recovery while building a life they can see themselves living without substances. At Tharros, we offer over 35 hours of structure weekly, including individual support from 8 peer support team members. Our structure is designed to help clients engage in activities outside of the house, while fostering community and engagement in life. At Tharros, we work closely with local clinical resources to support ongoing treatment goals. Clients engage a full time team of six members, plus ancillary providers, and we support work on co-existing mental health conditions, offering a holistic approach to recovery. Transportation and food for all meals are included.

For clients who have many outside commitments, or those approved to return to work, Teras can be a good entry point directly from treatment. For others, after 1-6 months at Tharros, clients may choose to transition to Teras, our less structured, but still highly supportive home. Teras is located two miles away from Tharros (both Tharros and Teras are in Lexington MA). This less structured residence is designed to support clients when they have 25+ hours of work or other outside structure, per week. While at Teras, clients continue to have peer case management, activities, and a weekly house meeting, but less daily structure than Tharros. Clients also provide their own transportation at Teras.

As clients become ready to move on from structured support, there are often very few good options. Tharros offers an independent living home in Belmont MA which is designed to provide community and accountability, but feel like living with sober roommates. Clients in Belmont engage an onsite weekly meeting led by the live in manager, who has an MSW. Clients also participate in activities and supports offered through Tharros.

Recovery takes time, and different supports at different stages. At Tharros, our average length of stay is over 6 months. Clients enjoy being part of the community, and they are set up for success at every stage.

TERAS
