Gavin Foundation is a men's treatment program in Boston, Massachusetts, established before 1990. It is one of a smaller number of area facilities set up specifically to serve men, and it also works with individuals referred through court-ordered or DUI-related processes, a focus shared by a limited set of nearby providers. The program holds CARF accreditation, placing it among a select group of accredited facilities in the region.

Care includes recovery coaching alongside a 12-step approach, and the program addresses gambling addiction in addition to substance use concerns. Vaping is permitted on site. This combination of structure and support may suit men navigating legal system involvement who are seeking a peer-oriented, coaching-supported path to recovery.
