More About Us.

Orange County Sober Living consists of The Cottages for women and Five Points Sober Living for men and have provided affordable housing for those in recovery since 2002. Located in Huntington Beach and Fountain Valley, California, Orange County Sober Living homes provide the necessary structure needed for those in recovery whether they are integrating back into society through employment, volunteering within the community, attending school, or attending outpatient treatment.

Orange County Sober Residences and Sober Living in Huntington Beach provide recovering guests with an alcohol and drug free living environment that are governed by a uniform standard set of practices. The rules of conduct are explained upon entry which include house rules, curfews, drug testing schedule, meeting requirements, chores, and respect for the environment and other house guests and where an understanding of zero-tolerance for alcohol and drug use is established. Peer Coordinators are present as role models to help in this process as well as care for the safety and cleanliness of the facility and that rules are being followed.

All of Orange County Recovery Sober Residences and Sober Living homes are structured, clean, centrally located close to public transportation, outpatient treatment service, places of employment, colleges, neighborhood parks, and stores that provide necessary amenities. These sober environments offer the structure, support, accountability, and life skills that are required to build a firm foundation for a productive life. The Head of Household and Peer Coordinators help provide a safe and comfortable environment by enforcing house rules; otherwise, guests may backslide at this most critical point in their healing process. Ongoing support from both peers and Peer Coordinators help individuals transition into productive lives.

The Cottages are members of the Orange County Sober Living Coalition, which is an organization that provides an oversight of quality, safety and credibility for sober living in the Orange County area. We are also a member of NARR (National Association of Recovery Residences).
