A Men's Sober House Near 35th and Glendale

The operator places State House near 35th Avenue and Glendale Avenue in northwest Phoenix. Arizona keeps recovery residence addresses off public listings, so the specific street comes from the operator at placement. The location puts residents on two of the city's long north-south and east-west bus corridors, with Interstate 17 close enough to make a job anywhere along the Black Canyon corridor realistic. This quadrant of Phoenix is residential, affordable and well supplied with the everyday errands a person in early recovery has to be able to run on foot or by bus.

What AzRHA Level 2 Certification Establishes

Level 2 in the NARR framework means a peer-run house with a manager on site and clinical care obtained elsewhere. Arizona's affiliate certifies each residence individually, and the certificate obliges the house to publish an ethics code, disclose fees and rules in writing before move-in, keep a written relapse and discharge policy, and answer to a complaint process outside its own walls. Because certification in this state is optional, a certified address has volunteered for scrutiny that an uncertified one has not.

Weekly Cost in This Phoenix Recovery Home

Freedom Sober Living publishes $225 per week for a shared room in its men's houses, with a $35 self-pay discount, and includes laundry, WiFi and streaming.

A House Manager and the Rhythm of the Week

Every residence in this portfolio has a named house manager. He handles move-ins, holds the line on house rules and is the first person a resident talks to when something breaks down. In peer housing that role is the structure. There is no clinical staff in the building, and the reason the arrangement works is that the person enforcing it lives there too.
