About this Recovery House
The Nextep – 9021 Cypress Lake Drive is a men's sober house in Fort Myers, Florida, in Lee County, and the second Nextep address on Cypress Lake Drive.
A Men's Sober House on Cypress Lake Drive
This end of Cypress Lake Drive sits further west than the operator's other house on the same street, closer to the US-41 corridor and the retail strip around the Cypress Lake area. The house is restricted to men, and it draws on the same stretch of LeeTran bus service, grocery stores and outpatient providers that serve south Fort Myers generally.
How Florida Certifies Recovery Residences
Certification for Florida recovery residences is voluntary and administered by a single organization, the Florida Association of Recovery Residences. A certified house discloses its fees and rules in writing, follows a published code of ethics, and answers to an outside complaint process. Because certification status can lapse or change, anyone comparing this house to others nearby should confirm current status directly with The Nextep.
The Nextep's Four-Stage Recovery Model
Every Nextep residence, including this one, runs on the same structure: a weekly chore rotation, a minimum number of Alcoholics Anonymous or Narcotics Anonymous meetings, a curfew, and a requirement that residents work, look for work, or attend school. The organization frames the whole arrangement as four stages, structure, commitment, motivation and service, moving toward independent living over roughly six months.
Fort Myers and Lee County Recovery Housing
Fort Myers is the seat of Lee County and carries most of the region's outpatient treatment capacity, its hospital system through Lee Health, and its community college. A resident at this address has that entire service network inside one county, without a commute across a bridge or a county line.
Support for Medication-Assisted Recovery
Residents taking prescribed medication for opioid use disorder can continue that treatment through The Nextep's outpatient program while living at this house. A sober living operator that works with medication-assisted treatment, instead of turning residents away from it, keeps someone from having to choose between stable housing and a treatment plan a doctor already prescribed.
