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.
