What is a Recovery Home?

For those who struggle with addiction, everyday life is full of temptations. Aside from potential stressors and triggers, the availability of drugs or alcohol within work, home or social environments often enables substance abuse. Living an abstinence-based lifestyle is much harder when you are regularly confronted with the choice to drink or use, particularly in the early days of recovery.

As a result, many people choose to make a Recovery Home residence their home following residential treatment. Recovery Homes are substance-free environments that hold residents accountable for their actions through regular meetings, house rules, community events and certain expectations. Recovery Home living eliminates the worry that there may be drugs or alcohol in your home, creating a safe space where you can decompress and relax in healthy and productive ways. A Recovery Home also gives you a built-in community of recovery-minded individuals who are all following the same path to a healthy, recovery life.

 Treatment is temporary, Recovery is lifelong.
