About Temperance Sober Living

Temperance Sober Living is a sober living operator based in Aurora, Colorado, running certified women's recovery housing in Arapahoe County.

An Aurora Sober Living Operator for Women

Temperance Sober Living was founded in 2022 by Terri Anne Darling and serves women exclusively, building its program around the idea of moderation in action, thought and feeling while staying open to any path to recovery a resident is already following.

Two Homes in Aurora

The operator runs two residences in the city:

• Temperance Sober Living - Arkansas House, on Arkansas Avenue.
• Temperance Sober Living - Cimarron House.

Both houses follow the same three-tiered level system and the same recovery coaching model, giving residents a consistent experience whichever address they are placed in.

A Three-Tiered Level System

Residents progress through three levels as they meet defined milestones, a structure that increases independence gradually instead of holding every resident to the same expectations from day one through move-out.

Recovery Coaching for Every Resident

Temperance Sober Living assigns each resident a dedicated recovery coach who works on goal setting and early sobriety support, a layer of individual attention beyond shared house rules.

Serving Women Across Arapahoe County

Aurora anchors Arapahoe County, within the Denver metro area, with Littleton as the county seat. Temperance Sober Living gives women in the region a women-only option built specifically around a structured level system.
