Awakening Recovery

Lifesaving 12-Step Peer Mentoring Recovery Homes

Structured Men's and Women's Recovery Homes in Los Angeles

Our nonprofit drug free recovery homes in Los Angeles serve the most vulnerable with chronic and acute substance addiction. Our residents seek a life-saving, transformative and sustainable recovery approach in a gender specific collaborative living environment based on finding a spiritual awakening through the 12-Steps, combined with fostering lasting behavior change through high impact peer mentoring from our fellow residents, and our alumni support community.

There needs to be more public funding for recovery housing in LA County. Only 7 out of 100 unhoused in LA County that identify as also having substance addiction currently have access to publicly funded recovery housing. The article describes the gap in our continuum of care in LA County, where those who rely upon MediCal after the initial 90 days of substance addiction stabilization either need to rely upon very limited Recovery Bridge Housing beds or other Housing First beds that are harm reduction focused versus abstinence based recovery focused. We need more recovery focused housing solutions in LA County that are publicly funded for those seeking a long-term and sustainable recovery path, like what we provide through mostly private funding at Awakening Recovery.
