A Sober Living Facility For Men in Middlesex County

This center specialized in providing sober living accommodation for men. While clinical detox and drug rehab services weren’t provided, the team did help individuals by pointing them in the direction of local detox facilities and professionals. They did not recommend anyone attempt detox alone for safety reasons.

What the facility did provide was a structured recovery environment that emphasized traditional recovery methods like abstinence, 12 step programming and community meetings.

Residents praised the supportive, community led atmosphere, with various positive comments made around the peer encouragement, structure, and the sense of accountability that was fostered here. Many also praised the facility for its cleanliness and sense of safety.

 

Community Support in a Homey Environment

Residents could expect to stay in a single family home, with the facility based in a calm residential neighborhood. Individuals stayed in shared bedrooms, and common areas provided hubs for communal support and relaxation.

There were also designated common areas used for fellowship, recreation and meetings. Onsite kitchen and laundry facilities were available. The house operated on a system of clear rules and structure to create a safe, stable recovery environment. To promote responsibility and accountability, all residents would take part in chores on a rotating schedule, abide by house curfews, and engage in regular drug and alcohol meetings.
