What is Sober Living?

Sober living houses also called sober homes and sober living environments, are facilities that provide safe housing and supportive, structured living conditions for people exiting drug and alcohol rehab programs. Sober living homes serve as a transitional environment between such programs and mainstream society. Many sober living homes also accept people who are in recovery from substance abuse but have not recently completed a rehabilitation program.

We provide additional holistic services and resources that other Sober Living environments do not.

The journey to continuous, lifelong sobriety doesn’t stop when you get out of rehab. Taking that first step—recognizing that you need help—shows your willingness to lead a healthier life.

Typically, though, people from rehab facilities may have a hard time adjusting back to their daily lives. When you get back out, you may end up returning to a harmful living environment. There might be triggers, stressors, and temptations that may jeopardize your ability to stay sober or contribute to a relapse.
