Addiction & Recovery Support

Description:

Clean & Sober provides resources to homeless addicts and alcoholics seeking help. These resources include a walk-in office at a homeless services agency, two entry-level residential communities, and transitional housing. Clean & Sober believes anyone sincerely seeking recovery should not be denied the opportunity simply because of his or her inability to pay. Clean & Sober therefore provides housing for those who do not qualify for or cannot afford other programs. Residents have typically been homeless or incarcerated, but learn to live in sobriety and eventually reenter society as productive, contributing members. A volunteer has an opportunity to play a huge role in this amazing transformation through working directly with residents: offering support, mentoring, providing transportation, securing donations and providing encouragement.

While serving full-time for 1 year at this site, volunteers also commit to living a simple and spiritual lifestyle in community with other volunteers.
