Structured men’s sober living in Los Angeles for residents of Los Angeles — a set daily routine, real accountability, peer support and help getting back to work.
Los Angeles has more sober living beds than any city in the country, and that is exactly why choosing one is hard: the quality runs from excellent to dangerous, and the listings all sound the same. Our homes are here, in the city, and we run them on a simple premise — a set daily schedule, a house manager who notices, drug testing that isn’t optional, and a peer group of men who are working, not waiting. Whether you’re coming from across town or across the state, the house is the same. Call and we’ll tell you honestly whether it’s the right fit.
Every man in the house is on a schedule. Mornings start at the same time, the day is accounted for — work, school, job search, meetings, appointments — and evenings end at curfew. House meetings are weekly. Chores rotate. Testing is random and frequent, and a positive result is handled the same way every time. None of this is complicated; the point is that it is consistent, because the thing early recovery lacks most is a routine that doesn’t depend on how you feel that day.
What makes an LA house different from one in a small town is what surrounds it. There are meetings at almost every hour within a short drive, a job market big enough that a man with a gap in his résumé can still find work, and a recovery community large enough that you can build a new circle without running into the old one. We ask residents to use all three.
Our homes are for men, 18 and over, who have completed detox and are not in active withdrawal. Most residents come to us from treatment — residential, PHP or IOP — and stay while they finish outpatient and get back to work. Some come straight from home after a period of sobriety and just need structure. We don’t take men who need medical supervision or who aren’t willing to follow house rules; we’ll tell you that on the first call rather than after you’ve moved in.
If you live in Los Angeles now, you don’t have to leave the city to change your environment. Most of our residents from LA neighborhoods keep their job and their commute; what changes is where they wake up, who they wake up next to, and how the evening ends. If you’re coming from Orange County, the Inland Empire, Ventura County or further, we’ll say plainly that distance from the place you were using is part of the plan, and we’ll help with the logistics.
Admissions is one phone call: (424) 327-9081. We’ll ask about your history, your treatment, and what you’re looking for, and we’ll give you a straight answer about whether our house is the right one — or, if it isn’t, where else to look.
Men from across Central Los Angeles live in our Los Angeles homes. We also work with residents from:

Our house managers and staff bring real training and experience to your recovery. Our homes are in Los Angeles, and we treat them as your home away from home — a place to strengthen hard-earned sobriety, get back to work, and build the independent life that comes after.
Having clear house rules, chores, sober-focused routines, and curfews helps you to remain focused on your recovery and personal growth.
Living with other men who share the same sober goals as you do will enable you to foster personal ownership toward your recovery as well as a sense of community and belonging. You will benefit firsthand from seeing how other men deal with their challenges and learn from their experiences and wisdom.
In our sober living homes, you will learn and reinforce life skills like cleaning, cooking, budgeting, and employment. These real-world skills become the foundation for your independence as you journey toward your new sober life.
You will participate in regular fun activities like movie nights, local sightseeing, hiking, beach exploration, and even volunteering activities.
Our sober-focused environment will deter relapse by providing a safe environment away from psychoactive substances and promoting healthy ways of living. You will also have access to immediate care and support if you feel vulnerable or experience strong cravings/urges to use substances.
Post-detox/rehab, moving directly to daily life can be jarring. Our sober living homes serve as the transitional bridge you need between intensive rehab settings and full freedom.
Sober living homes are ideal for individuals who are committed to recovery and need a structured, supportive environment. This includes:
