What Is a Sober Living House?
Sober living homes provide alcohol and drug-free housing where individuals can live full-time while continuing to strengthen their sobriety after completing residential inpatient treatment. Research has shown that sober, communal housing and recovery-focused living environments can reduce substance use and incarceration rates while improving employment outcomes.
The sober living model began in the 1940s within Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), when members created affordable housing options that required sobriety and encouraged participation in 12-step meetings. Many of these original sober homes continue to operate today, reflecting the lasting value of this recovery approach.
Sober living homes are not licensed treatment facilities and do not offer onsite clinical services. They are often located in calm, residential neighborhoods, creating a stable setting that reduces exposure to triggers. They are also typically privately owned and free-standing.
Sober Living Houses vs Halfway House
Many people use the terms sober living homes and halfway houses interchangeably, but there are important distinctions between the two. Halfway houses often require residents to have completed a formal rehab program and often limit the length of stay to up to 12 months.
In many cases, placement in a halfway house is court-ordered, such as following incarceration. These settings tend to be highly structured, with onsite staff, set curfews, and required participation in treatment or programming.
Sober living homes, on the other hand, typically offer more flexibility and privacy. While residents are expected to remain sober and contribute to household responsibilities or group meetings, the environment emphasizes peer support, accountability, and personal responsibility rather than strict enforcement.

Why Is a Sober Living House Effective?
A sober living house is effective because it provides a safe, structured environment where individuals can practice recovery in real life, without the pressures and triggers of their previous surroundings.
By removing access to drugs and alcohol and reinforcing daily routines, sober living helps residents build consistency, accountability, and confidence as they transition from treatment to independent living.
Outcomes of living in a sober home often include positive changes in behavioral health, physical health, occupational functioning, and relationships. Studies found that besides reducing substance use disorder, sober living homes also reduce mental health symptoms such as depression and anxiety.

Sober Living House Rules and Structure
Although our sober living homes offer some flexibility, residents must still follow several rules.
Drinking or using drugs is not allowed in sober living homes, and violating this may result in you being asked to leave. However, admitting that you relapsed and taking accountability can earn residents another chance.
Other typical rules of a sober living home include:
- Respect your housemates and the home staff.
- Follow set curfews (within reason, we understand some men work late or overnight shifts while in sober living).
- Participate in group support meetings, life skills workshops, and house chores.
- Cover certain expenses to live in the home (food, basic toiletries, etc).
- Agree to random drug and alcohol testing.
- Most homes do not allow pets or overnight guests.

Sober Living House FAQs
Will Insurance Cover Sober Living?
Sober living is typically not covered by insurance, as these homes do not provide licensed clinical services. However, many residents use insurance to cover outpatient treatment or aftercare services while living in sober housing. Our admissions team can help explain your options and guide you through coordinating care so you can focus on your recovery.
How is Your Sober Living House Different?
Our sober living house is designed exclusively for men, creating a brotherhood that encourages accountability, support, and shared growth. It is Christ-centered, integrating faith and spiritual renewal into daily life while fostering personal responsibility and character development.
Our Neurofaith™ philosophy combines addiction neuroscience care with spiritual principles to help men heal from trauma, rebuild strength, and experience lasting transformation in both mind and spirit.
Do You Treat My Addiction?
Likely, yes. While our sober living homes don’t provide on-site clinical services, our PHP and IOP programs provide comprehensive care for a wide range of substance use disorders, including alcohol, opioids, stimulants, and benzodiazepines.
Treatment is personalized, evidence-based, and may include therapy, coping skills training, relapse prevention, and, when appropriate, medication-assisted treatment (MAT) in partnership with licensed medical providers.
Where Do I Live During Treatment?
Clients can return home after treatment sessions. But for those who need additional support, our sober living options are available in nearby residences. These homes provide a structured, safe, and drug-free environment that complements therapy. They can also support residents with transportation to treatment, connecting with employment, and other resources.

HoldFast Recovery is “hands down” the best treatment center I have ever been to. Between the staff and brotherhood, there is genuinely something special about this place. If you’re trying to find renewed faith and become the best version of yourself, you’ve come to the right spot. Be prepared to put in the work!

Unlike no other. Holdfast has been a life saving Christian based spirit filled residential treatment center based on the 12 steps. Instead of dreading the classes and meetings I look forward to all of it. The brotherhood of men here is very strong and I’m healing Godspeed.

I highly recommend Holdfast Recovery. My life fell apart faster than a bridge collapse, I lost everything. Through, this program I gained everything. It’s not instantaneous, it’s a lifestyle, much like how living in addiction is a lifestyle.
Things didn’t fall apart overnight (although it may have seemed like it) they won’t come back together overnight.
This was a Godsend in my life, and finding this facility was only through the work of God.
There is something happening at Holdfast that has changed my course, and has allowed me to slowly regain contact with my daughter.
The staff is amazing, and this was the right place for me.
I cannot express the life change I’ve gained enough.
Go here!
