Also referred to as recovery homes, these provide substance-free living environments to support people as they abstain from alcohol and other drugs.
Government has issued a request for information to community-based agencies to establish and operate sober living homes throughout Newfoundland and Labrador. Also referred to as recovery homes, these provide substance-free living environments to support people as they abstain from alcohol and other drugs. They also offer a structured and supportive setting that help residents develop the skills and confidence needed to abstain from substance use, reduce hospital stays, reduce readmission to hospital, and increase connections to community supports. Submissions from community organizations will be required to provide details on sober-living housing, peer support, access to clinical services, other recovery-focused supports, a plan for partnership with NL Health Services, and other details.
