About this Sober House
Northwest Phoenix Sober House is a men's sober living home in Phoenix, Arizona, in Maricopa County, run by Clean & Sober Living as one of five houses in its network of certified recovery residences.
A Men's Sober Living Home in Northwest Phoenix
This sober house serves men in recovery in a residential, family-style neighborhood in west Phoenix. A private yard with a full-size pool, a patio and a barbecue area gives the house outdoor common space that many sober homes have to do without, and it doubles as a place where a house meeting or a cookout can happen without leaving the property.
Certified Through the Arizona Recovery Housing Association
Clean & Sober Living is a founding member of the Arizona Recovery Housing Association and describes its homes as having passed a rigorous inspection process covering safety and structure. That membership matters in a state where sober living itself is not licensed the way clinical treatment is: certification is the mechanism that holds a house to a published code of ethics and an outside complaint process.
A Ninety-Day Commitment Rooted in AA Principles
Residents commit to a minimum ninety days, and the program is built on the spiritual principles of Alcoholics Anonymous. Ninety days is long enough to move past the earliest, most unstable weeks of sobriety, and setting it as a minimum up front tells a prospective resident what kind of stay the house is built around, rather than leaving length of stay open-ended.
Meetings and Employment Access in Northwest Phoenix
Two twelve-step meeting locations are within walking distance of the house, which matters most in the first months before a resident has reliable transportation. Glendale Community College sits about four miles away, and the MetroCenter Mall area and its surrounding corporate offices give residents a nearby concentration of entry-level jobs, both a practical draw for a house at this stage of recovery.
One of Five Clean & Sober Living Homes in the Phoenix Area
Northwest Phoenix Sober House is one of five residences Clean & Sober Living operates in the Phoenix area, all built around the same ninety-day AA-based model. A resident who outgrows this house or needs a different set of housemates can raise it with an operator who already runs other options nearby, rather than starting over with an unfamiliar company.
More on The Sober House
The area is ideal for employment opportunities. Just north is MetroCenter Mall. The MetroCenter area is heavily populated with retail, commercial, and lodging.
Because of its central location, a large number of corporate centers are located in the area. If interested in going back to school, and education can be an anchor when recovering from addiction, Glendale Community College is 4 miles west of Northern House.
