Our Mission
Addiction is a disease that affects not just the individual facing substance use disorder, but also their entire family. It takes a significant toll on the mental, physical, and spiritual well-being of everyone connected to that person. Given the uncertainty often present in the recovery process, our sober companions work diligently to alleviate some of these stressors. By connecting individuals with the resources available in their recovery communities, we empower them to begin rebuilding their lives with a sustainable design for living.
As sober companions, we firmly believe in the transformative power of recovery from substance abuse. We offer hope not just to those battling the disease, but also to their families. By providing 24/7 companionship, we guide individuals along a personalized path to recovery that resonates with them. We emphasize honesty, empathy, and compassion, demonstrating that there are viable options for a better way of life. Our approach involves being present, actively listening, and facilitating healthy choices, all while honoring the dignity and respect of everyone involved.
Our Companion Promise
Our companions are specially trained and committed to providing discreet, effective programs tailored to even the most private and sensitive situations. They help your loved ones establish both short- and long-term recovery goals while identifying potential pitfalls. With decades of experience, our companions share solution-oriented problem-solving techniques, staying with your loved one 24/7 to provide essential resources that strengthen their recovery journey.
When to get a companion
Many clients leaving inpatient treatment choose to have a sober companion for a few weeks as they reintegrate into a sober lifestyle. The duration of the companionship can vary; while most companions work with clients for 2 to 4 weeks, some situations may necessitate longer support, depending on individual goals and plans.
Our sober companions can assist with a range of functions, including grocery shopping, attending appointments with doctors, lawyers, therapists, or court appearances, and helping clients manage triggers, develop coping skills, and navigate relationships and finances, and re-entry into the workforce. Our primary goal is to support and guide individuals with dignity, respect, and experience, facilitating a smooth transition into their new life of sobriety.
