About Six Step House, Inc. – Encinitas
The Six Step House, located in Encinitas, California, hosts community focused recovery group meetings and other sober activities for adults. The primary activities are Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) 12 step meetings, including women only and LGBTQ+ focused groups, but there are also other events.
AA is a long running national program that holds meetings around the country to help those struggling with addiction. There are 12 Steps that help members achieve and maintain sobriety, and 12 Traditions govern how the organization operates. The Six Step House offers a wide variety of meetings. Some are open to all, and some are closed, so only AA members focused on overcoming alcohol use can attend. There are meetings focused on discussion, spiritual principles, the Big Book, and more.
AA members have a sponsor that helps guide them through the 12 steps and also benefit from the support of the community. At the Six Step House, there are also opportunities to volunteer around the property and to participate in community service projects. Participants also learn a variety of life skills, including managing triggers and emotions, self care, spiritual focus, and more.
The Six Step House relies on monthly pledged donations from members. They may also refer participants to additional drug rehab or treatment options that accept private insurance plans such as Aetna, Humana, Blue Cross Blue Shield, Cigna, United Healthcare, and more. Because insurance plans vary, be sure to contact the insurer to verify coverage details and out of network benefits.
