Sober Living Homes for Troubled Young Adults in Colorado

Sober Living Homes are residences that are alcohol and drug-free. They are designed housing for troubled young adults who are in recovery. These residences provide kids between the ages of 18 and 25, both men and women in recovery from addiction, an independent living environment with fully integrated therapeutic support services. They also have access to many recreational activities and special events associated with effective therapeutic healing.

These programs are ideal for youthful men and women from Colorado who are attending college or planning to return to college and looking for a sober place to live, develop healthy friendships, and achieve academic success. Please call (866) 439-0354 to speak with a professional.

Drug-free housing provides a safe haven for those who wish to re-enter mainstream society after a struggle with substance addiction. The peer group plays a key role where individuals going through after-care may not get the understanding they need from friends or family, who can not fully understand their situation.

Other young adults from Colorado in the same situation can relate, and therefore provide a powerful support structure. Living in the home is a transition. It gets the individual ready for the day when they get their own apartment and return to a drug-free life on their own.

Some parental advice for understanding your young adult child..

Take steps to protect your teen/young adult from suicide and depression. For example, if your son/daughter is thinking about suicide, he or she is probably displaying some warning signs. Listen to what your kid is saying and watch how they are acting. Never shrug off threats of suicide as being a “drama queen.”

For everyone in the household, including children, parents need to commit to a respectful tone. If you're yelling, your child yells and is disrespectful. It's not necessary to yell to get your child's attention or cooperation if you have a good relationship. How do you feel when someone yells at you?
