Project SOAR Recovery Residences NW 11th Avenue Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Project SOAR Recovery Residences - NW 11th Avenue is a men's sober house in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, in Broward County. Northwest 11th Avenue runs through the 33311 grid between Broward Boulevard and Sunrise Boulevard, close to the center of the operator's cluster of houses.

Twelve-Step Practice in This Men's Recovery Residence

Project SOAR builds its houses around twelve-step participation and attendance at meetings outside the house. That is a specific model with specific consequences. Residents are expected to leave the property regularly, to build a network that survives the end of their stay, and to answer to peers who are doing the same. Broward County has one of the densest meeting schedules in the country, with meetings running from early morning to late night across Fort Lauderdale, Wilton Manors and Oakland Park, so the expectation is realistic on foot or by bus.

A Men's Sober Living Home Between Broward and Sunrise Boulevards

The block sits between two of the city's main east to west corridors, both served by Broward County Transit and both lined with the kind of employment that hires people rebuilding a work history. Residents are men. The house shares that with every other address the operator runs, and it means bedrooms, bathrooms and the weekly house meeting are organized around one population.

Fifteen Years of Recovery Housing in Fort Lauderdale

The organization has operated in the Fort Lauderdale area since 2010. For a family calling from another state, that history is checkable in a way that most claims about a sober house are not. It also means the house is embedded in a local referral network, which is how most residents actually arrive.

How Florida Certifies Recovery Residences

Certification in Florida is voluntary and runs through the Florida Association of Recovery Residences, the state's affiliate of the National Alliance for Recovery Residences. What certification buys a resident is documentation: fees and rules handed over before move-in, a written policy covering relapse and discharge, and a complaint route that does not end with the house manager. Because it is voluntary, no conclusion about any Florida house follows from its absence from a list, and the operator is the right place to ask about current status.
