INTAKE QUESTIONS

“Our son transitioned from Hazelden into Saint Paul Sober Living and spent nine months as a resident. When investigating sober living options, our initial phone conversation was professional, compassionate and thorough. All of our questions were answered and we never felt rushed. SPSL understood the challenges we faced as parents of an adolescent struggling with addiction and treated us with kindness and patience. Our son was treated similarly as he adjusted to living in sobriety; not ever a smooth path. He was given the support he needed to establish routines around AA meetings, school, work and self care (grocery shopping, dental/medical appointments, therapy appointments, etc...). SPSL has established clear expectations and boundaries for their residents allowing people to feel safe in the house. Additionally, SPSL works to create an atmosphere of fellowship by creating opportunities to gather socially for meals, walks, sports/softball and special outings. Our son was able to graduate high school virtually, maintain a part time job and build his skills of living independently with the help and support of SPSL. We couldn't have had a better experience and remain deeply grateful.”
