Sober Living Atlanta: Stepping Stones of Atlanta Recovery Residence Requirements
Stepping Stones of Atlanta Recovery Residence Requirements( Sober Living )
1. Commitment to stay at least 9-12 months and work through the 12 Steps is essential. You must complete all 12 Steps during your stay. You may choose to stay longer than 9 months at our Sober Living facility. Program fees are $1200 a month, with options for weekly payments ($300) or monthly payments ($1200) after the first month.
2. Complete abstinence from all mind and mood-altering substances is required. This prohibition includes illegal drugs, alcohol, certain prescription drugs (though some medical exceptions can be considered), and any other substance intended to alter your mental state. As a sober living house, we do not accept residents who are taking Suboxone or Subutex. Regular screenings are conducted at Stepping Stones of Atlanta Recovery Residence, where we perform drug tests frequently (2-3 times a week with a 14-panel screen, including ETG and Kratom).
3. You must be willing to obtain a "sponsor"—someone who will guide you through the 12 Steps of recovery. We expect every resident to secure a sponsor within one week and to engage with them on a weekly basis. Attend Biscayne Room Atlanta.
4. A complete willingness to adhere to all rules and directions is mandatory. Stepping Stones of Atlanta Recovery Residence (Halfway Houses in Georgia) provides residents with a structured living environment aimed at maximizing your potential while instilling accountability. This includes adhering to curfews and maintaining cleanliness on the property.
5. Residents must either hold a job, actively seek employment (this will be verified), engage in an outpatient program, or participate in community service or volunteer work during the day.
6. We maintain a strict “No Fraternization” policy for a minimum of 60 days. This rule prohibits dating, socializing, or spending time with members of the opposite sex, and you must complete your 5th Step before being allowed to go on dates.
7. Willingness to attend mandatory meetings is essential. You must attend three specific mandatory meetings held at designated times throughout the week. Additionally, you are required to select and participate in a minimum of two additional 12 Step meetings. Throughout the year, there may be other mandatory meetings, retreats, and functions. On Monday and Wednesday, our clients gather for the meeting at the Biscayne Room in Atlanta at 8 p.m., and we hold a community group on Thursday at 7 p.m.
At Stepping Stones, we hold our clients to high standards, which has contributed to our success and garnered several awards.
