About Us
Creating a safe, supportive, and structured environment for lasting recovery since 2017.
We Are a Sober Community That Cares
Sober Living California is a transitional living facility for men who are in their early recovery. Following rigorous detox and rehab, the shift to the outside world can be very disorienting. Even during outpatient rehab, you need a safe, trigger-free environment to stay and to take positive strides toward recovery.
Sober Living California provides that substance-free, structured environment where you can transform your life and embrace the journey ahead of you with hope and confidence. Every single day of your stay here, you grow into your sobriety and independence.
Our Mission & Vision
Ever since our founding in 2017, we have been home to transforming countless lives toward lasting sobriety and independence. Our mission is to help you and other men in recovery to achieve independence and stability as you move toward a healthier, brighter tomorrow. Every single day, we approach your recovery with the principles of integrity, respect, and compassion to instill accountability and ownership toward your recovery. Our vision is to be the sober community by your side, where every resident who walks through our doors has the tools, skills, and confidence to thrive within and beyond our four walls.

Real Stories of Hope
“Sober Living California became my ‘bridge over troubled water’ as I struggled with multiple relapses. I did not know where to go until a friend suggested this. Needless to say, I am 6 months sober and never plan on looking back – ever!”
- Joe M.
“After being in and out of many rehab centers, I found Sober Living California. I did not know how much I needed a safe space to recover until I enrolled here. I found my recovery in my community – what they offered me was so much more immense than just going to rehab and back.”
- Alastair T.
“If it wasn’t for Sober Living California, I wouldn’t be here. Period.”
- Anonymous.
“Sober Living California not only provided me with the tools to stay sober, but also to lead an independent life. I find that I can handle the ups and downs of my life because of the independence I have been able to develop, without resorting to substance use. I am 1 year sober today, and counting!”
- Robert F.
“Sober Living California has been my stepping stone to full recovery. As someone who has been to rehab, I did not know how difficult the period after rehab would be.
