Elevation Plan for Sober Living
The Elevate Recovery Home Elevation Plan focuses on equipping members with the tools for long-term success and assisting them in developing essential life skills, such as financial planning and accountability. It’s important to note that this is not a professional service and is not overseen by a clinician. The primary aim of our Elevation Plan is to provide additional support to community members in becoming more self-reliant and independent. Additionally, our staff can provide assistance in developing job skills, including resume building, interviewing, workplace behavior, and career selection.
We utilize a community-based approach as a method to foster accountability. Our house staff and peers work together to ensure that members attend their meetings, stay in communication with their sponsors and therapists, and thrive within the community.
