Clean and Sober Housing

Clean and Sober Houses offer a supportive way of living and opportunities to learn skills in a clean and sober environment.

Not going back to where a recovering addict came from may be the single most important  reason for the Clean and Sober House.  Using this cost-effective way to improve the chances of recovery from alcoholism and drug addiction may be the best way to show the community that recovery works, and that recovering addicts can become model citizens.

  • Residents receive 24-hour support from peers in recovery.
  • Learn alcohol and drug-free living skills.
  • Share responsibility for maintaining the House.
  • Learn to manage a household.
  • Receive guidelines and training to  successfully manage a House.
  • Have social interaction and activities.

Individuals may live in Clean and Sober House as long as they want, as long as they remain clean and sober and pay their rent.
