WHY SOBER LIVING?

Alcoholics and addicts, usually individuals who chronically relapse, are encouraged to choose "aftercare" - extended and supervised sober living in an environment that is structured, yet allows them to "get back to the business of living".  Statistics prove reduction in recidivism rates for those who choose aftercare; the longer they are sober, the better chance they have of staying sober.

Drug and DUI Courts use sober living as part of their treatment plan in lieu of sending offenders to jail.  The Court views these efforts to rehabilitate as a more productive option to incarnation.  Probationers may be sentenced to sober living houses as one of the condition of their probation.  Providence Place can design and monitor compliance with a sober living program to meet the requirements of court ordered probation referrals.

Our guests come from all walks in life, each of them experiencing one of life's "great equalizers" - alcohol and chemical dependency.  Ironically, this common thread, brings our guests together and establishes friendships among people who would never socialize, creates bonds of trust and intimacy that most people only dream about yet never experience...if not for the life  threatening disease of addiction and alcoholism that brought them together.
