Sober Living Homes, also known as sober living apartments and sober living residences, are facilities which provide safe, structured and supportive living conditions for individuals exiting drug rehab programs. SLHs act as an intermediate environment between these programs and the general population. This is done to ensure that the individual does not experience withdrawal symptoms which can be life altering. In most cases, the patient stays in the facility until they have completely recovered from their drug addiction.

The concept of sober living is not new. There are various models of it available in different rehab centers and rehabilitation centers across the country. It is an individualized solution that addresses the unique needs of each individual drug addict. For instance, there are sober living apartments for those who have committed serious crimes. These apartments are usually located in prisons where the inmates have already completed their sentences and are free to leave their cells. They live there in apartments with their own kitchens and bathrooms and are supervised by drug counselors. Other facilities offer residential rehab facilities for those who are just entering rehab programs or for those who are simply having issues with drug abuse.

There are several advantages to residential rehab centers. One advantage is that people who have completed rehab programs have achieved a sense of freedom and independence after completing their rehab programs. Most of these people are in need of some form of support for themselves. Residential treatment offers this support and thus reduces the burden on the individual who has undergone drug rehab programs. There are a variety of facilities that offer sober living homes. Each one is unique and may not be able to meet your specific needs.
