ABOUT OUR CULTURE

SAN DIEGO SOBER LIVING HOME

A Vibrant Sober Community "By the Sea" in Carlsbad

Getting initial sobriety isn't easy, so we applaud you for that.  But can the next six to nine months actually be even harder? Some people in recovery say that there is a "pink cloud" that makes the first thirty days of sobriety uplifting and exciting.  But after that awakening, settling in to 'long term sobriety' can be tricky for many people.  There is a discouraging statistic that 90% of those who complete an inpatient rehab program will relapse within the first year*.

Where many men and women run into trouble are the weeks and months that follow initial sobriety, especially if they return home to the setting in which they were using drugs or alcohol.  As you progress in your life and begin the process of  re-entering the workforce or resuming your educational career, it's crucial to stay plugged into a 'recovery community.'  Not only will you be surrounded by others who are serious about maintaining continuous sobriety at By The Sea, our house managers and administrators will be there to provide professional guidance and support so you can achieve long term sobriety. 

While living at our San Diego sober living, you will be immersed in a community of successfully recovering men who are pursuing successful careers, relationships, and physical health.  Our San Diego sober living home is within walking distances to many opportunities to work as well as the gym, recovery meetings, public transit, basketball courts, and restaurants. We are a short drive (or public transit ride) to the beach. Carlsbad was rated 'one of the best places to live in America', receiving an A+ score from niche.com

Our house managers work alongside our residents, and often their families too, to facilitate change necessary for lasting recovery. Our comprehensive sober living program includes:

• Bi-weekly drug testing, and breathalyzing
• Access to outpatient therapy/ psychiatry/ family therapy
• Zero tolerance (creates a positive culture of recovery)
• Support and mentoring
• Transitional living planning
• Reviewing and resolving personal credit issues
• Family communication
• Daily schedule reviews and time management support
• Organizational skills development
