Whether you are staying at Elmwood Way or Acorn Hill, at Right Path House, your monthly fee ranges from $1950 to $2750. It will cover private or double room housing with or without a private bath, accountability systems (testing), gym membership, recovery support (coaching), and oversight of our community standards (case management).

​

5. What does a typical sober house day look like?

You'll have a conversation with one of our coaches to decide what activities can further your recovery goals, reduce stress, and increase stability. There's generally a flexible balance of:

• Individualized, community-based clinical program

• Hours at work or school 

• Recovery commitments (12-step, SMART and DHARMA)

• House responsibilities 

• Recovery community connections

• Family

 We offer workable structure without suffocation.  

​​​​​​

6. How long can I stay?

You can stay as long as you’re actively participating in fulfilling our community expectations. Recovery is a job. Your job from now on. Generally, successful residents stay from 6–36 months. We offer a helpful self-administered assessment of readiness. Getting through early recovery takes time. We don’t rush people out the door — we support rebuilding a lifestyle. That's a rock-solid recovery foundation.

​​​​

7. What happens if I slip?

We respond immediately with compassion and clarity. A slip doesn’t make you a bad person — but it does require firm leadership to protect the safety of the house. We follow a dignity‑centered, safety‑first protocol that includes:

• Staff's immediate assessment

• Supportive next‑step planning with recommendations for detox, other sober houses, or treatment.

• Protecting the community from chaos or risk

Boundaries and compassion can coexist — and they do here.

​​

8. Who else lives here?

Our homes are adult‑only, recovery‑focused, and filled with residents who are referred by rehabs because they are serious about rebuilding their lives. To ensure everyone is actively pursuing recovery, coaches meet with everyone every week. In short, you’ll live with people who share your goals, not people who jeopardize them.

​

9. Is the house actually sober?

Yes.  We expect all of us from every guest to staff to owner to attend meetings, use a sponsor and go to therapy— and we mean that. We maintain a drug‑ and alcohol‑free environment through:

• Consistent testing 2 or 3 times per week

• Clear expectations about 12-step and clinical support with case management follow-up

• Immediate response to unsafe behavior

• Staff who actually enforce boundaries and take the time to focus on their own sobriety as well.

​​

10. What support do you offer if I struggle?

We offer one-to-one coaching, peer-to-peer support, space for meeting with your sponsor, and referrals to nearby clinical support. 

• Space to share on a regular basis. We always suggest our women's house morning workshops or the evening meal.

• Peer support throughout the day

• Staff oversight

​​

11. Can I work, go to school, or have a normal life?

Absolutely. Sober living is designed to help you re‑enter life safely, not pause it. Most residents:

• Work (full or part) or attend school

• Rebuild and build relationships

• Develop sober lifestyle routines

• Grow financially and emotionally​​

​

12. What services does Right Path House offer?

We offer coaching, a gym membership at Coastline Fitness and a structured environment (shared dinners, in-house meetings, and workshops) where it's easier to be successful because you are seen and heard.

​

13. What Rehabs refer to Right Path House?

We regularly receive referrals from Mountainside, High Watch, Caron, Wellbridge, Paramount, The Hammocks, and Lantana. That says alot about the trust we've earned and the reliability we represent.

 

14. What benefit does combining 12-step with a sober house offer at Right Path House?

12-step programs, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), offer several benefits including those that are recommended for long-term sobriety by (the research from) SAMHSA when integrated into sober living residences. We have a mission and a focus in our recovery homes making us that much more mindful and effective in our daily activities. These benefits include:

Peer Support: Residents get a supportive community of individuals who understand the challenges of addiction and recovery. Best of all, no one has expectations here of who you are and what you do. You can follow a new path for yourself. The old you got into trouble and ruined life, the new you makes quality choices. 

Accountability: Regular meetings and commitments encourage residents to stay accountable to their sober life goals.

Structured Recovery Path: The 12 steps provide a clear, time-tested framework for personal growth and recovery.

Emotional and Spiritual Growth: The program encourages self-reflection, acceptance, and spiritual development, which can be healing.

Reduced Relapse Rates: Participation in 12-step programs is often linked to lower relapse rates due to ongoing support and coping strategies.

Social Connection: It helps residents build sober friendships and a network that supports a drug- and alcohol-free lifestyle.

Improved Life Skills: Through the program and living in the house, individuals often develop communication skills, stress management techniques, and healthier habits.
