In the transition houses with Choice House, clients have private bedrooms, a clubhouse next door with an outdoor putting green and inside a pool table, ping-pong, weights, entertainment center, and an overall area to spend time with each other and build their recovery community. In our Boulder Sober Living our men are allowed to start applying recovery tools and skills they have learned in treatment in the safety and structure of our community, a step we believe is critical for men in early recovery. To set up long-term sobriety, we created a program called H.E.R.D. and is only offered at Choice House. The program is committed to transforming men to recovery with the support of a community within a stable living environment.
Individuals who enter our structured sober living program often participate in the separate Choice House IOP program. During the day, they are active in our community working, attending 12-step meetings, and building their recovery capital as they integrate into life.
We host three in-person 12-step meetings each week at the clubhouse so that our men have easy access to the local recovery community. While online meetings and fellowships are an incredible resource, this alternative will not replace the enriching experience of in-person contact for people in recovery.
Choice House has 26 total structured Boulder sober living beds available at our 10 different homes, all neighboring each other and our clubhouse. Our staff handles each admission into our sober living program individually and determines the right fit.
