By: Fountain House Sober Living Community for Women Many people fail in their commitment to living sober by exiting rehab and falling back in with 'the same old crowd'; the crowd that pushes in the wrong direction, the crowd that pulls at the wrong purpose, the crowd that only know hows to support addiction, not how to support a person. Sober living is the stable, supportive environment needed to transition from the early, fragile post-rehab days to the pre-independent living days; where a resident has had the success of living addiction-free, in a community where that is the reward, with people that understand this intensely personal struggle. As residents move through their personal journey from rehabilitation to independent living, it is important that they live in a community and involve themselves with people that are understanding and compassionate, and that the residents are rewarded for their positive choices everyday. As Arthur Ashe, the great tennis player and activist, stated: “True heroism is remarkably sober, very undramatic. It is not the urge to surpass all others at whatever cost, but the urge to serve others at whatever cost.” Fountain House is a place to serve and be served, to support and to be supported, to bring out the hero in all people.
