Women navigating recovery are often some of the most vulnerable recovering individuals. Women in particular can face unique challenges that can stand in the way of getting quality treatment for a healthy life. The Giving Tree Sober Living Homes for Women aims to bridge the gap in quality care by providing sober living homes where women can feel safe and supported.
These sober living homes take a “social model” approach to care meaning that all residents are encouraged to lean on each other for support and guidance as they move through recovery. Woven into this model are 12-step programs that utilize peer-led support.
These sober living homes provide basic necessities like clothes, food, and comfort amenities, but teach the residents critical life skills that help them develop their independence, autonomy, and resistance to temptations and triggers that could threaten their recovery.
