My son's experience was not that good
I agree with the poster above that some are in a sober living facility because they want to be and some are there because they have to be. My son went willingly. He did get jobs and actually managed the house eventually. However, it turns out that the sober living home owner was the one supplying these men with their drugs of choice. This man was the one who sold my son his last heroin. My soon shot up the heroin the next day and died of a heroin overdose 3 years ago. What an evil, evil man selling drugs to addicts. I guess my only advice is to be super careful in choosing the sober living home.
