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.

It emphasized that structure and community norms are key predictors of success.

Why Sober Living Matters
Our structured sober house 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".
Sobriety needs more than simple maintenance, it needs to grow. That’s one of the most resonant truths in recovery—and in life, really. Maintenance might keep someone afloat temporarily, but it’s growth that builds momentum, meaning, and joy. At Right Path, that philosophy runs deep: every structure—house rhythms, work, clinical, neurofeedback, peer connection—is designed to activate movement, not stagnation.
​
In-house, through our workshops, nightly dinners, and a12-step meeting, as well as nearby 12-step, 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 join with our community to lift up every aspect of life—physical, emotional, and social. Recovery becomes a process and way of life.
