Over the years, our members have evolved into a parellel community to Chabad of Boca Raton providing an additional sense of belonging and healing infused by the warmth of Torah and Jewish culture. Many have settled here to raise their families creating an inspirational network of hope and support. It doesn’t matter if you’re observant, unaffliated or somewhere in between, all are welcome.

Men’s & Womens recovery houses are for highly motivated Jewish addicts and alcoholics, having completed an in-patient treatment program and 90 days of sobriety.

Call Rabbi Kessler at 561-450-5503 for more information.

Unique to Florida, half-way houses offer an additional level of supervision at the fragile and sensitive phase of re-entry. The Jewish Recovery Center sober homes provide recovering men and women an opportunity for a smooth transition from in-patient treatment back to life in the real world in a safe, nurturing Jewish environment.

On-call supervision is 24 hours with random drug screening. Residents are encouraged to attend morning meditation, group education and daily 12-step meetings. We offer case management services such as job counseling, referrals to outside professionals as needed and access to a library of 12-step materials and Jewish texts on culture and spirituality.

It’s a place to call home, located in a safe residential neighborhood within comfortable walking distance to stores and synagogue where residents can attend regularly scheduled services. Our recovery houses are conducive to keeping Kosher and observing Shabbos, many for the first time in their lives. And for others who have lost interest as a result of their addictions, its a place to rediscover and reconnect with Yiddishkeit.

Over the years, past residents have evolved into a parellel community to Chabad of Boca Raton providing an additional sense of healing and sobriety infused by the warmth of Torah and belonging. Many have settled here to raise their families creating an inspirational network of hope and support. The Jewish Recovery Center provides a unique experience in sober community living and Jewish culture, it doesn’t matter if you’re observant, unaffliated or somewhere in between, all are welcome.

Parents, rabbis and shluchim from the US and abroad can access our resources and guidance when making a placement decision. Deciding where to send a family member, significant other or even yourself can be overwhelming under the best circumstances, especially so when challenged by emotions and  distance.  The JRC is here to offer a confidential assessment over the phone or in person and assist you in all the details.

The JRC also offers recovering addicts, and their families, an extra level of support to navigate the transitional period from treatment to daily life.  This fragile period in the recovery process, if not handled properly, can reverse all the achievements accomplished during treatment. We can help safeguard those at risk while they reside at our sober house.

As Rabbi Kessler serves as chaplain to many treatment facilities, he is often able to intervene when a family member is struggling with relapse, or maybe facing legal consequences and possibly  incarceration in south Florida.

The Jewish Recovery Center is a well-connected organization specializing in matching Jewish addicts with the best possible treatment programs geared to the nuance of each individual and their families.  We are a phone call away, (561) 450-5503 or chabadflorida@gmail.com.

Sun Sentinel - May 30, 2008

Every Friday night, JRC Director Rabbi Meir and Frumi Kessler welcomes the recovery community to enjoy a real Shabbos meal at the community center of Chabad of Boca Raton. An evening to savor the delicious food and feed your soul, it’s a wonderful opportunity for the recovering person to tap into their spirituality and reconnect with their heritage. Being part of a beautiful and meaningful experience encourages strong ties to the sober Jewish community.

Each week the JRC celebrates the sober Jewish lifestyle with our very popular Friday night Shabbos dinner. Attracting nearly 100 attendees, from treatment program residents to individuals successful in long term recovery and their families, the Jewish Recovery Center’s Shabbos dinner has become a highly regarded destination for recovering Jews in South Florida. Held in Chabad of Boca Raton’s spacious dinning hall with Glatt Kosher cuisine catered by the Jewish Marketplace (Boca Raton) the room fans out into banquet seating to create a festive atmosphere. During the holidays, JRC events are expanded to welcome the two hundred plus participants with special meals, readings and prayers.

Director Rabbi Meir conducts the Friday service, blending weekly Torah readings into a 12-step recovery theme, calling upon the audience to share their experience, strength and hope as it relates to that weeks’ Parsha. Different members of the clergy are invited to speak bringing a savory spiritual flavor to the evening. Interspersed with Shabbos song and Zemirot, the evening is transformed into a fusion of Jewish values, heritage and traditions united in the culture of recovery…a moving experience for all.

Many children are there with their parents, now sober, and invested in sharing their new lifestyle. Over the years current and past residents of JRC Recovery House have chosen to remain, settling in the neighborhood and raising their families. This group of Jews dedicated to and successful in their sobriety, form a vital network of support and warmth, unique to our program.
