Glendale sober living options in this guide are all just outside the city for now. Glendale sits between the San Fernando Valley, the foothills and northeast Los Angeles, so the closest homes we list are in several directions.
Nearest homes in each direction
- South, in Echo Park: Rainbow Hill Sober Living, which its website describes as a home for gay, bi and transgender men (call for rates).
- North, in Sunland: 12 Step Sober Living (men, $800–$1,000 a month).
- West, in North Hollywood: Chandler Lodge (men, $975) and Coast Recovery (men, $950).
Two more men’s homes are listed in Highland Park, southeast of Glendale; you can find them on our Los Angeles page. For women’s homes nearby, see May House in Monrovia (women, $850–$900) or our women’s sober living page.
Train and bus links
The Glendale Transportation Center is served by Metrolink and Amtrak, which helps if a home or program is up the line in the Valley or in downtown Los Angeles. Check whether the home you choose is a short walk or bus ride from a Metrolink stop.
Glendale FAQ
Is there an LGBTQ+ friendly sober living near Glendale? Rainbow Hill in Echo Park calls itself LGBTQ+ affirming and says it serves gay, bi and transgender men. Call to ask about current openings and house rules.
Are Glendale sober living homes licensed by the state? California’s Department of Health Care Services licenses treatment programs, not sober living homes. Many homes join a voluntary group such as the Sober Living Network instead; our guide on how to check a sober living home explains how to confirm it.
