ABOUT CJO HOUSE: SOBER 4 LIFE
Set on a tree-lined street in a historic home in Attleboro, Mass., Sober 4 Life provides safe and structured transitional living for adult men struggling with substance use disorder.
TREATMENT & ASSESSMENT
All clients are individually assessed so that a personalized treatment plan can be created. Each client must commit to a set minimum stay at Sober 4 Life, which varies for each individual. Stays at the sober living facility can last up to 18 months.
The program is 12-step based and designed to help clients successfully acclimate back into everyday life. Residents learn to rely on their peers for strength and support, as well as turn to 12-step fellowships such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA). Drug and alcohol testing is conducted at least twice a week.
During the first 30 days of residency, clients are paired with a peer mentor and are tasked with finding a 12-step sponsor. As they progress through the program, clients build and strengthen their leadership skills and become mentors in their own right.
STAFF CREDENTIALS
