Sober living centers in South Florida can aid in the path to successful, long-term sobriety. First, what is sober living?

Sober living is a program providing solid care options for the people recovering from drug or alcohol addiction. Sober living is also an excellent opportunity for the recovering addict to get a clear view of the new direction the post-recovery life must take.

Typically, sober living is a post-rehab housing arrangement. Completing rehabilitation from alcohol and addiction is a major achievement which a sober living home strengthens in several ways:

  • The opportunity for lifestyle changes and therapies that promote a new beginning in life.
  • Physical removal from the peers and environments enabling drug addiction through comprehensive, long-term, residential rehab programs.
  • Help during the transition from addiction to a sober, normal daily lifestyle. Sober living enables the recovered individual to get a taste of the real world devoid of the make-believe drug-inspired notions.
  • The sober living programs run from 90 days up to one year or more.

South Florida sober living centers provide safe, structured environments where you can continue with the final recovery stages and get used to the real world. Sober living teaches life skills, active work lifestyle, and the means to connect with sober peers.
