Sober Living PROGRAM in Utah

Sober Living in UtahA Sober living residence in Utah is a structured environment where all the residents are in recovery from drug or alcohol use.

Residents living in the home have curfews and are required to work and support themselves. They will also typically have a strong foundation in recovery already.

Sober living homes are sometimes referred to as three-quarter houses.

This is because residents are about three-quarters of the way to fully integrating into society.

What is Sober Living Housing?

Sober living homes are also referred to as transitional living or recovery residence programs.

Residents of these homes stay in a supervised recovery home that provides clients with continuing care after their addiction rehabilitation treatments. Clients exist in a recovery community that shares the goal of achieving complete independence after proving each sober community and member can maintain stable sobriety from drug or alcohol use.

Sober living homes help residents transition from intensive treatment to independent living. Residents practice full autonomy while peers and supervising staff hold them accountable for their actions. To be admitted into a sober living home, residents must not have drugs or alcohol in their systems. They must also be working towards self-sufficiency.

Benefits of a Sober Living House in Utah

Sobriety is a journey and process that takes time, and sober living in Utah offers many benefits.

Sober living housing provides guidance and support while holding residents accountable for their success in recovery. In addition, residents benefit from living in this type of facility because they can continue to improve their physical health in an environment that reduces stress, depression, and fatigue.

Sober living offers recovering addicts with stable transitional housing. Stable sober living housing enables them to get back on their feet and have a fresh start. Sober living houses are designed to help those who have completed an inpatient or outpatient program and are no longer actively using drugs or alcohol.

Some benefits of a safe and supportive sober living house include:

A Chance to Build Meaningful Relationships

For most addicts in active addiction, the only relationship that matters is the one with their substance of choice.

A sober living home is where they can begin building meaningful relationships that add value to their lives. They can receive the social support that they need to build their recovery program.

In a sober home, they can meet people who are also on their recovery journey towards a sober lifestyle. These people will have their unique perspectives on sobriety and understand the addicts’ struggles. Their peers will understand what they have been through while in active addiction.

Often they will have dealt with similar situations and offer perspectives they can apply to their lives to stay sober. In addition, residents of sober living homes have others around them to help alleviate feelings of loneliness, and over time, these companions often become more like a second family.

Continuing Support & Structure

One of the main benefits of a sober living home is the ongoing support and structure an addict needs in recovery.

A lack of structure can make it easy to fall into old habits that can harm their recovery journey. Sober living residents receive the support and relapse prevention tools they need to live a sober life.

Sober living homes are typically run by managers who ensure that all residents follow the rules and guidelines of the house. They are there to enforce the rules and help residents find solutions to problems they face.

In addition, the staff is trained to provide ongoing care and to hold all residents accountable for their actions.

Learn Valuable Life Skills

While in active addiction, relationships can suffer, and maintaining the addict’s health and keeping up with obligations becomes unimportant.

A sober living home allows them to learn the life skills needed to have healthy relationships and support themselves after they transition. 

Typically, these skills are taught by requiring residents to complete chores such as:

  • ADoing laundry
  • AGrocery shopping
  • AGoing to work
  • ADaily exercise

Easing the Transition

Transitioning from treatment to daily life can be challenging.

When a person completes treatment, they are often nervous and scared to transition back into the real world. They may have a fear of failure or lack support. A sober living home makes the transition easier.

After completing an inpatient treatment program, Steps Recovery Center can help them transition back into the world. Intensive inpatient programs are excellent at treating addiction. However, people in recovery fall back into old habits when faced with everyday stressors outside of a safe and supportive environment.

At Steps Recovery Center, we provide an environment similar to home. Residents face many of the same problems as at home but have people around them who are also in recovery and can provide support in moments of weakness.

At Steps Recovery Center, the recovering addict will have a strong support structure as they begin to return to everyday life.
