General
A sober living home (SLH) is a supportive, substance-free residence for individuals recovering from addiction, serving as a bridge between rehab and independent living. These homes enforce sobriety through rules like drug testing, curfews, and mandatory meetings while fostering peer accountability. Unlike rehab, they don’t provide medical treatment but help residents transition back into daily life with structure and community support. Ideal for those leaving treatment or needing a stable environment to maintain recovery, sober living promotes long-term sobriety through responsibility and gradual reintegration.
Our sober living home welcomes adults (18+) who are actively committed to their recovery journey. Ideal residents include those who:
- Have recently completed detox or a treatment program
- Are currently enrolled in outpatient therapy or 12-step meetings
- Can pass our intake screening and drug/alcohol testing
- Agree to follow all house guidelines and rules (including sobriety, chores, and curfews)
We personally evaluate each applicant to ensure they're prepared for our structured, supportive environment. Your recovery is our priority – contact us to discuss if our home is the right fit for you or your loved one.
