Men’s and women’s sober living programs provide men and women with the tools necessary to overcome drug addiction. Admission into a sober living home in Orange County, CA after successful substance abuse treatment provides the structure and support after rehab to help you develop healthy routines and achieve lasting sobriety. Along with our sober living programs, we also offer clients access to our alumni and community programs that meet each month. Both of these aftercare programs allow clients to stay on the straight and narrow long after they leave an inpatient or rehab program.

We help tutor young men and women who want to go back to school or have a desire to learn important life skills.

Daily Life in a Sober Living Home
Sober living programs should not be confused with inpatient rehab, even though they are residential facilities.
A sober living program affords you much more independence than residential rehab, with your movements unrestricted, as long as you are pursuing some form of recovery.
While sober living communities allow you to transition back into daily living with more freedom than you would have in a treatment facility, you’ll nevertheless need to follow the rules of the sober living home. You will need to remain substance-free and committed to recovery, abide by all rules including curfew and attendance at group meetings, and you’ll also need to meet your financial obligations.
If you are uncertain about how to structure your life in the absence of drink or drugs, one of the key benefits of a sober living program is the readymade sober fellowship you will find. With all residents at varying points on their recovery journeys, you can harness powerful peer support. The more positive and sober friendships you can make, the more you can reinforce your desire to remain abstinent.
Many sober living home residents will attend local meetings of 12-step groups like AA and NA.
Some people choose to attend outpatient treatment while based at a sober living community. This still ends up cheaper than residential rehab, but provides a stable and supportive environment from which to engage with therapy. These people will attend counseling and therapy sessions at rehab centers during the day and return to the sober living home in the evening.
The focus in sober living communities is on positively filling your time in active recovery rather than passively sitting back and hoping for the best. You will have help and advice on hand when you need it, and plenty of privacy and independence, too.
How you structure your day in sober living will depend on your circumstances as well as the stage you are at on your road to recovery. Make that time count in the best way possible.
Improve Your Chance of Long-Term Recovery with a Sober Living Program
Data shows that anywhere from 40% to 60% of those in recovery will relapse at least once. Sober living in Southern California can mean the difference between relapse and a seamless journey to sustained sobriety.
Many people finishing a 30-day or 90-day program in residential rehab find a sober living home acts to make the shift back into daily living less abrupt.
Others may like the idea of engaging with outpatient treatment, yet lack a home environment amenable to recovery.
Choosing to continue your recovery while based at a sober living home offers many benefits conducive to recovery without relapsing:
- Finding employment
- Locating suitable housing
- Gradually making amends with loved ones
- Adjusting to sober living more smoothly
With the right aftercare and relapse prevention plan in place, you should feel confident to identify and deal with any triggers that tempt you to use substances while enjoying a structured yet independent lifestyle at a sober living program in Southern California.
