Our Objectives

MileStones Sober Communities is a sober living community in Escondido, California that is focused on providing a Drug and Alcohol Free Living Environment to folks in recovery. Our residents are a mixture of newcomers, graduates of residential treatment programs and recovery homes and structured sober livings and folks that are simply participating in 12 Step Programs that want to live around other sober people.

This formula has worked so well that;

 in 2010, 90% of our residents stayed sober for the complete length of their stay with us.

The average sober living home has a success rate somewhere around 35%. We have obviously figured out what works and our homes are structured around providing a safe environment populated only with individuals that are 'willing to go to any lengths" to ensure their sobriety.

We are a Sober Living Home with a unique approach. We have found that when we focus on sobriety and practicing 12 Step Principles, we don't need the level of control over our residents typically found in these environments. Our primary concern is providing a safe and sober environment to "adults" that are dedicated to their sobriety. 

Because the average length of continuous sobriety for our residents is around 2 years, people that are new to sobriety tend to thrive here and instead of having one counselor for 10 people, we have 5 or 6 sober peers. This concept of fellowship has caused 12 Step Programs to thrive throughout the world and we found no need to try to improve on what's already working.  

Our rooms are all private and come furnished or unfurnished. We only provide shared rooms to couples. We believe adults need their space and that this is a key element that differentiates us from other sober living environments. 

Our experience is that the residents that have acquired physical sobriety and "emotional sobriety" tend to desire to live among others that have done so as well. That's why they choose sober living homes. 

In any case, best of luck to you all in your search for long-term sobriety. We consider our homes relatively different than other sober living homes in Escondido in that although we don't heavily monitor our residents, we rarely have problems with chemical use or high levels of drama. About 90% of our residents stay sober for the length of their stays. Our residents for the most part, work, and are fully self-supporting. They attend meetings and participate in recovery programs because they want to. We hope that you do too.
