Recovery Nutrition Program
Welcome House launched the Recovery Nutrition Program to support residents in a healthy recovery. With a full-time chef who plans and prepares fresh and healthy menus, residents have access to nutrient-rich foods that support their efforts to achieve and maintain sobriety in short-term recovery.

Our chef also teaches on-site Nutrition in Recovery classes for residents which focus on healthy food choices, grocery shopping, and reading nutrition labels.
