A New Standard of Sober Living

In any recovery program, there has to be a structured environment to facilitate quick recovery. Our Homes offer such an environment where residents earn privileges depending on their adherence to the House rules. Individuals receive guidance on a regular basis through our mentorship programs and this helps them appreciate that the road to recovery does not always have to be full of disappointments.

This is important because the challenge faced by many such programs is that the clients often go back to their former addictive habits after leaving the centers. We, therefore, want to instill a sense of accountability to our clients so that they can engage in meaningful activities even after they complete their treatment at our Homes.

Members are also made to feel at home with our comfortable facilities.  The luxurious 4-bedroom Home is neat and well kept with inviting colors to make residents feel at ease.

We just don’t want to treat our clients for a short period of time and then alcohol and drug addiction become an issue when they go back to their places. We aim at succeeding in helping them achieve long-term sobriety. These people often come out as completely changed people who are determined to achieve their personal goals.
