About this Recovery House
Lighthouse is a men's sober living home on Wagner Drive in Fort Collins, Colorado, in Larimer County, operated by Lighthouse, a faith-based recovery organization open to residents of any religious background.
A Men's Sober House on Wagner Drive
This Fort Collins sober house serves men in recovery, one of several men's residences the organization runs in the city. Wagner Drive sits in a residential part of Fort Collins served by Transfort bus routes, which keeps work, meetings and appointments reachable without a car.
A Faith-Based Approach Open to All
Lighthouse describes its program as faith-based while welcoming residents regardless of religious background, and it reports serving more than 1,600 program participants with a success rate above 80 percent. Two application paths exist, a standard application and one built for people applying from incarceration, which reflects a program that draws residents from both treatment and reentry.
Part of a Larger Fort Collins Network
This home is one of several Lighthouse operates in Fort Collins, including a newer women's residence added as the organization has grown. Men living here are part of a network large enough to offer options if a transfer between houses is ever needed.
Recovery Housing in Larimer County
Fort Collins is the seat of Larimer County and the anchor city of Northern Colorado, home to Colorado State University and a concentration of outpatient treatment providers that men's sober housing in the city can draw on.
Sober Living Community
The day-to-day functioning of the sober home helps the resident to begin to transition into a healthy, functioning lifestyle. Within the sober living home, we provide such amenities as: food, family room, game room (pool, darts, etc.), laundry facility and daily assistance with life's ups and downs.
We also provide information for services in and around the city of Fort Collins including self-help meeting lists and a continually updated resource guide of services the city and surrounding areas provide in respect to schooling, employment, mental health, medical help, transportation, community service, etc...
Throughout the week, residents are required to fill their time with meetings, job searches and attend all house groups or meetings. Each resident should feel safe and welcome and feel they have someone to turn to for guidance in times of need. We also encourage residents to create a peer-driven house and lend support and guidance to EACH OTHER.
Many of our residents have been in similar situations to one another and may have suggestions for one another and be able to provide assistance to newcomers who are just beginning their recovery road to a healthy, stable and sober life. By sharing stories of recovery and stability, residents assist each other and encourage each other to strive for the best, even in hard times
