Sober living at One Step At A Time Recovery House is a structured housing program designed for individuals who are committed to maintaining sobriety, accountability, and personal responsibility. This program is intended to support continued recovery through clear expectations, peer accountability, and a substance-free living environment—not as a clinical treatment setting, but as a recovery-focused housing option.

Understanding Recovery Housing at OSAT
One Step At A Time Recovery House operates as a recovery-focused housing program with defined expectations and participation requirements. Residents are expected to actively engage in their recovery while living in a structured, supportive environment.
Key components of our housing program include:
• A substance-free living environment
• Clear house rules and accountability standards
• Required recovery engagement and peer support
• Community responsibility and respectful conduct
Recovery Engagement & Required Support
Residents are required to actively participate in recovery-supportive activities throughout the week. This includes required meetings and engagement with peer recovery services.
All residents must be paired with and actively engage with a Registered Peer Recovery Specialist (RPRS). Peer support is a required component of the OSAT program and provides accountability, encouragement, and recovery-informed guidance throughout a resident’s stay.
House Rules & Program Expectations
All house rules and expectations are reviewed in detail during the intake process and must be agreed upon prior to placement. These expectations are in place to maintain safety, sobriety, and stability for all residents.
Program expectations include, but are not limited to:
• Compliance with all house rules and guidelines
• Participation in required house meetings
• Engagement with peer recovery support
• Adherence to curfews, cleanliness standards, and community responsibilities
• Respectful behavior toward staff, peers, and the home
Structure, Accountability & Daily Expectations
Structure and routine are essential components of recovery housing. Residents are expected to maintain daily accountability, follow established schedules, and contribute to the overall functioning of the home. These expectations support consistency, responsibility, and long-term stability.
Relapse Policy & Continued Program Eligibility
Sobriety is a core requirement of participation in the One Step At A Time Recovery House program. In the event of a relapse, circumstances will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.
When appropriate, OSAT may support a resident in transitioning to a higher level of care or a treatment facility. However, placement in treatment does not guarantee re-entry or continued placement in OSAT housing upon completion or discharge.
Continued participation in the program requires demonstrated commitment to sobriety, accountability, and compliance with all program expectations.
Program Commitment & Eligibility
One Step At A Time Recovery House is designed for individuals who are ready to commit to sobriety, structure, and accountability. This is a recovery-focused housing program—not a tenant lease arrangement.
Participation is contingent upon ongoing compliance with program expectations. The Program Director reserves the right to remove any participant whose actions compromise sobriety, safety, or the recovery environment.
Our goal is to provide a stable, supportive space where individuals can focus on recovery and take meaningful steps toward independent living—one step at a time.
