Sober Living for Men in Chicago
Their sober living home provides luxurious semi-private rooms with queen sized beds and shared marble and granite-finished bathrooms. Shared areas include multiple living rooms with fireplaces, recreational areas to focus on physical well being and outdoor spaces for relaxation and group gatherings. The entire home has access to a fully-stocked kitchen, multiple televisions and internet access to stay connected with family during treatment.
A typical day at the facility starts with breakfast and morning chores followed by morning meetings and check-in. During the afternoon, residents are required to attend individual therapy or counseling sessions, educational/work programs and 12 Step meetings. Evening is typically reserved for dinner and downtime.
Unique Programs for Aftercare
Long-term sobriety requires aftercare resources which is why New Beginnings North offers relapse prevention education, life skills coaching, assistance with employment or education and transitions planning courses. A unique aspect of this facility is their post-residence support which encourages former residents to check-in and continue treatment if needed as well as possibly becoming a mentor for current patients.
