Expectations.
Our primary objective is to provide our clients with an environment that supports their on-going sobriety, well-being and independence. To safeguard the spaces that our men share -- from their residences, to group therapy rooms, to our communal dining area -- we have rules and expectations for clients that honor respect, accountability, and autonomy.
​
What follows are a sample of the rules and expectations we have for our clients. Because each man is at a different stage in his recovery, and his own respective phase, client expectations vary between individuals. These are the guidelines we hold all of our clients to:
​
Absolutely no use or possession of drugs or alcohol is allowed on or off property.
Clients must coordinate with the clinical team to request a leave of absence from the program as needed.
​
All clients must pay their weekly fees every Friday. Weekly fees include weekly individual therapy, groups, and drug testing, a 24 hour staffed facility, furnished apartments, linens and bedding, kitchen supplies, all utilities, Direct TV, telephone and Internet access, gym use, and access to our on-site food pantry.
​
All residents must demonstrate active participation in a self-help program, i.e. AA, NA, etc.
​
All clients are expected to exhibit daily living skills including house cleanliness, laundry, cooking, and other basic life skills to foster independent living.
​
Vehicles are permitted on property with the approval from the clinical team.
​
All personal belongings, apartments, and cars are subject to random searches. This is to ensure the safety of the individual client as well as the Sunset House community.
