Recovery Community

A recovery community is a typically a transitional living facility for those who have completed an inpatient drug treatment program. These facilities provide a drug and alcohol free environment to help you maintain your commitment to sobriety. Additionally, staff members strive to offer support and resources needed to help clients integrate back into society successfully and free of substance abuse. 

Recovery communities offer support for clients in a variety of ways. They offer referral for not only employment, but also transportation, food, and outside therapy options. In addition, many recovery communities have relapse prevention and substance abuse classes for residents to help them maintain their sobriety. These communities typically have a clinician supervisor on staff to address medical needs. 

The goal of a recovery community is to help clients transition from the highly structure world of in patient drug treatment centers into independent members of society. They usually require residents to have some sort of steady job and pay rent. In addition, residents must follow strict house rules and can be subject to random drug tests by staff members. At recovery communities, residents can earn more and more privileges with good behavior and other signs of success. These communities typically have a required minimum 90-day stay. A recovery community can help you become part of society again while recovering from addiction. 

There are a variety of recovery communities available, including ones for clients on probation or parole, so be sure to find a facility right for you. They are often offered as an alternative sentence for those who have been convicted of drug related crimes. Recovery communities offer different levels of assistance and structure for their residents. These facilities provide the resources and support you need to transition back into society sober.
