Sober Living Residences
Residential drug and alcohol rehabs are just the start of the recovery journey. Sober living homes offer a safe environment, with support and guidance, for those pursuing a pathway to recovery. Residents return to work, school and life’s activities, with encouragement and accountability. Those who transition through sober living homes for at least 9 months have a greater than 70 percent chance of continued sobriety over a period of 10 years.
When looking into sober living options, do your homework and ask the following:
-
Who owns the house?
-
Who oversees the house/program?
-
What's the maximum number of residents at the house?
-
What are the rules and expectations?
-
How is accountability structured within the house?
-
What's the protocol if someone returns to using (relapses)?
The sober living homes below value recovery, dignity, respect, compassion, safety and structure. These homes are owned and operated by persons with long term sobriety, who work alongside residents to provide a safe and structured environment for the alcoholic or addict. The management teams of these houses are "Revive!" trained and certified. "Revive!" training involves recognizing and responding to an opioid overdose emergency using naloxone.
