Structured sober living for adults committed to recovery
For adults leaving detox, treatment, or unstable housing
Fresh Start Recovery Homes provides safe, structured, alcohol- and drug-free housing for adults who are serious about long-term recovery. Residents build routines, accountability, and income while preparing to live independently.
The gap Fresh Start fills
Treatment ends. Recovery does not. The weeks after discharge are the highest-risk period, and returning to the same environment is the most common reason early recovery fails.
Fresh Start gives people a different address to return to ; one with peers in recovery, clear expectations, and staff who notice when something is off.
Accountability without shame
House agreements cover sobriety, curfews, chores, meeting attendance, and respect for housemates. Expectations are consistent and applied the same way for everyone.
When someone struggles, the first response is support and a plan, not immediate exit. Honesty is treated as progress.
Building the exit plan from day one
From the first week, residents work on income, savings, credit, rental history, and documentation ; the practical pieces that determine whether independent housing is realistic.
Residents leave with a permanent address, a job or income source, and a recovery network that continues after move-out.

Frequently asked questions
- Is there a cost?
- Program fees vary by house and situation. Call us and we will explain options, including support for residents without current income.
- How long can I stay?
- Length of stay is based on progress, not a fixed clock. Most residents stay several months while building income and housing readiness.
- What happens after a relapse?
- We respond with a plan. Depending on safety and honesty, that may mean a higher level of care and a path back to the house.
