Our residence is provided in a [single family home or apartment building] located at [enter address here]. It is democratically run based on a handbook and policies & procedures. We have a paid House Manager that helps manage the house and provide guidance and support. Residents are encouraged to also participate in available recovery support services in the community.  

The [enter Recovery Residence name here] requires that its residents have been in recovery for at least [enter required length of sobriety] before moving into the residence. In addition, all residents are expected to commit to providing peer support for other residents,participate in recovery planning with peers and/or community supports such as outpatient counseling and/or self-help groups and confirm that recovering in a housing environment with a House Manager and Peer Support as opposed to a more intensive treatment environment is their preference.
