Design for Recovery sober living Phoenix

Design for Recovery Sober Living Phoenix serves men aged 18 to 35 who are in the early stages of sobriety. The home provides a structured environment where residents practice accountability, honesty, and service, drawing on Twelve Step principles. This Phoenix sober living home for men opened in 2024 and is listed by SAMHSA as a sober living option in Phoenix.

The program matches each resident with a mentor who helps with practical skills for early recovery, such as managing medications, handling finances, and finding employment.
