WHY SOBER LIVING MATTERS

Sober living isn’t just a place to stay—it’s a proven strategy for long-term recovery. According to the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and​​ The Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), recovery housing is linked to lower relapse rates, higher employment, and improved relationships. In fact, individuals in recovery homes had relapse rates of 31.3% compared to 64.8% in standard care after two years.

READ MORE ABOUT THE RESEARCH Recovery Research Institute – Housing Characteristics Study This study examined 49 sober living homes and found that residence characteristics—like peer support, house rules, and mutual help participation—were directly linked to: - Lower substance use - Higher employment - Reduced criminal justice involvement. It emphasized that structure and community norms are key predictors of success.

OUR STRUCTURED SOBER LIVING OFFERS

More than a place to stay, we offer a supportive home where recovery is shared, trust is built, and lasting connections take root. We believe that "together we stay sober", structuring our day to embody community, work, and play.

​

Through workshops, nightly dinners, and an in-house 12-step meeting we're fostering friendships, resilience and transformation. With our wrap-around clinical resources, at the horse farm, at the gym, or at the sound retreat, we lift up every aspect of life—physical, emotional, and social. Recovery becomes a process and way of life.

When Life Meets Recovery

We bring that research on long-term recovery success to life. Residents co-create personalized schedules with their coach—designed around work, IOP, or personal goals. For those not yet working or in treatment during the day, we offer daily morning workshops to build rhythm and connection.
