After completing an inpatient addiction treatment program, many people choose to live in a sober living home. Sober living homes provide a safe and drug-free environment for people in early recovery. Residents are expected to adhere to certain rules, such as abstaining from drugs and alcohol, attending weekly meetings, and following a curfew. In addition, residents are typically required to contribute to the upkeep of the house and may be responsible for chores such as cooking and cleaning. Living in a sober living home can help people in early recovery develop new skills and habits that will support their sobriety in the long term. It can also provide a sense of community and belonging that can be essential for recovery. For many people, sober living is an important step on the journey to a life of sobriety.
