In my previous articles, I have discussed some of the transitional living facilities that are available in Colorado. This article will also discuss a unique facility that I have found to be very effective – the Sober Living Colorado. This transition homes are owned and managed by an organization called “transitional living homes”, which is a subsidiary of the American association of residences. The Sober Living Colorado is an affordable real estate opportunity for those looking to live a simpler lifestyle in a more environmentally conscious community.
The Sober Living Colorado is an eightplex residence that offers its residents the opportunity to live an affordable lifestyle that focuses on wholesome outdoor activities, healthy food choices, fitness exercise and a balanced social life. The transitional living program started in the mid 90’s and provides services to families, retirees and anyone else looking for a peaceful place to live. The Sober Living program offers two types of homes; one is a house in the mountains. The other is a comfortable but smaller house in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. The house in the mountains offers magnificent views of the Continental Divide and includes an outdoor kitchen, built-in fireplace and room-service.
The house in the foothills allows its residents to enjoy hiking, biking, mountain biking and kayaking. There is also a small library with a few books and a couple of computers for the use of the less fortunate residents. Other activities included in the Sober Living program include a small group of intentional community members hosting weekly garden parties, music concerts and nature walks. The goal of the transitional living program is to help residents eliminate their addiction to alcohol or drugs while building a better life in the form of a meaningful and productive relationship.
