What is a recovery residence?
Recovery residences provide a homelike setting for individuals recovering from alcohol and substance use disorders by offering peer support; an environment that prohibits the use of alcohol, illegal use of prescription drugs or other illegal substances; assistance with support services and community resources; and is based on Social Model principles. This philosophy promotes norms that reinforce healthy living skills and associated values, attitudes, and connection with self and community for sustaining recovery.
