Design For Recovery’s sober living environment is definitely the best Ive ever sent my son to for sure. Micah has been to other places that were not even close in comparison. If you follow their rules and actually open your mind up to new ways of living you wont regret it. I recommend their sober living for those who really need a structured environment to grow in, the way they have it set up will definitely help change the way you view or do things for the better. It has truly set my son on the right path. Thank you Design!

My son Zachary was at his breaking point his mother and I had sent him to multiple rehabilitation centers and other sober livings. Nothing seemed to work. Then Design For Recovery gave Zach the gift of the opportunity to recover from a seemingly hopeless state of mind and body. The accountability within the house is amazing. The loving and understanding kindness of the staff gave him a good example of how to conduct himself as a sober person. Zach was never told what to do just given the opportunity to do it with kind understanding, guidance and direction. It was very clear to us that he was in a great place that genuinely cared about sobriety. The opportunity that Zach was given of a safe, sound and sane place to be at while he recovered from this horrific addiction has allowed him to re-establish my relationships with us, his family, Zach’s life was literally saved in this place I will forever be grateful for Design!

Adding this place to my list of TOP resources that contributed to saving my son, Alexander’s life. The managers and staff go above and beyond to make sure your transition after detox or rehab is exactly how it should be. If you’re truly serious about your recovery then this is the place for you. The house is nice and is in a very nice location. I don’t think I could’ve picked a better place for sober living in Los Angeles for my son.

Design For Recovery is the best Los Angeles sober living. They are very structured but also allow a lot of freedom. It taught my son, Landon, accountability and integrity, as well as helped him relearn how to live. Clients as well as staff take pride in the homes.

Incredible place for people who are looking to get their lives back on track and acquire essential life skills to lead a successful life. The staff is extremely kind and try to help with whatever is necessary to help the individuals they serve. As a long-time resident of Southern California, I can honestly say that this is the best sober living around.

This place is awesome! If you are serious about your sobriety, this is the best Los Angeles sober living. The staff is amazing and really care for each and every resident that they cross paths with. Families are involved every step of the way, receiving a weekly phone call from either Derek or Drew. I love how much they stress the importance of accountability and becoming self-sufficient. If you are looking for a quality sober living house, look no further. This is the place for you.

I cant say highly enough of Design for Recovery Los Angeles Sober Living House and Mentoring Program. The amount of regeneration that these men exude is unparalleled. Its a lovely home in Playa Vista, but theres a lot more to it than meets the eye. The staff is polite and genuinely cares about everyone with whom they come into contact. As soon as you walk through the door, you will be welcomed heartily. . As soon as you walk through the front door of this sober living house, you will be greeted warmly. I wish there were more establishments like this in Los Angeles.

Design for Recovery has changed my life. It has given me the foundation that I need in my recovery to get the life I always dreamed of and more back. Fantastic staff and a very friendly community. I would recommend this to anyone on the fence about a sober living house. Nice amenities and a bit more private than other sober living facilities.

After repeatedly failing at other sober livings, I finally had the luck to fall into the hands of Design for Recovery. The program has an exceptional staff that was critical In helping me change, and I met some guys who I still consider best friends to this day. There is a perfect balance of structure and discipline to build a foundation for your future, while also allowing enough freedom for me to able to work on my goals which included graduating an educational program and obtaining my dream job. I couldn’t have done it without the help of this program.

I’m extremely grateful for everything that Design for Recovery has done for me. I wasn’t able to stay sober for more than 30 days at a time on my own. Thanks to the program at Design, I’ve been sober for 10 months and have amazing relationships with the people in my life. Going through a structured sober living like this one, I learned personal responsibility. I was taught how to be a man of integrity and they also showed me how to have fun in sobriety! Out of any Los Angeles sober living, this is definitely the one that I would recommend to a friend or loved one that’s struggling with addiction.

As a professional in Addiction Treatment I visited this sober living facility and found it remarkable. All of the tenants had nothing but, good things to say and seemed to have a very solid recovery foundation. The house manager is extremely attentive and has a truly inspiring recovery story. I highly recommend this facility for anyone that is seeking a safe and nourishing recovery environment.

Very grateful for design for recovery. When I moved in I was lost and broken my relationship with my family was suffering. Not only did Vinny and Derek help me accept myself they helped repair the relationship with my family. I learned how to live and love life sober I also gained a group of sober brothers who I will forever be in contact with. Thanks to this program I’m living an amazing life holding down a job and mostly loving sobriety.

Design for recovery literally saved my life. They have no tolerance for you to be in the same mindset as you were when you were an addict. They helped me realize that Im an addict and an alcoholic and I need to change. As long as you put in the work, hit your meetings and go to the whichever outpatient program you will succeed in your recovery. Thank you design for recovery for helping me become a better person.

This is a great place if you or a loved one are looking for a structured environment to get sober. I am so glad that my bother was able to find the help he needed here and made some great sober friends. Over the last year or two, he has been through so many programs, meeting a lot of people who relapse together. This house is different, I am not sure how they do it, but it is noticeable. Trevors attitude is completely different and he seems like he is changing for the better. I finally am beginning to see the brother that I know and love again!

When my brother was at his lowest point, we thankfully found design for recovery and it completely transformed his life! The love, compassion, mentorship, brotherhood and direction that Derek and David and the rest of the design team showed him was priceless. My brother learned life skills at design and is now living a life of sobriety and happiness. His success is a direct reflection of design for recovery and the time and energy they put into his life. He has almost two years sober now! I will forever be grateful to design and all the hard work that they did to give me my brother back!

Extremely grateful for everything this sober living has done for me. I stayed here for 3 months in the beginning of 2019, and it was a great experience. Great house, great residents, great managers, and overall a safe environment. I wish I would have stayed longer, but had to return home and deal with some family issues. Thank you for everything!

I will never forget what design for recovery did for me. They helped me set the base foundation on certain principles that I still live by to this day one and a half years later. Design also introduced me to the program Alcoholics Anonymous in which I am still heavily involved in today. I went from playing the victim to taking responsibility for all of my actions. I am forever grateful for design for recovery, you guys saved my life. Thank you!

This was not my first Los Angeles sober living but it was my first structured sober living that taught me how to live a life full of honesty and responsibility. The management cares about each person they deal with and reached out to my family so that they could also be included in my recovery. The brotherhood and bonding between clients and staff is unlike any Ive had before.

Grateful to this establishment. I had a friend who was helpless and hopeless. They were able to change his life. He is now two years sober and back to being the friend he once was. Thank you for caring and ensuring all lives are treated as important.

So happy that my family and I found this sober living for my little brother. Over the last 7 years, he has been all over (Florida, California, Arizona) trying to get sober to no avail. For the past 6 months, Adam, has been in residential (60 days) and then transitioned to Design for Recovery for the last 4 months. Our family can finally sleep at night knowing that Adam is in a safe place and doing great. Derek makes it a priority to call my parents every week and he even calls me to give me updates. Everyone here really goes out of their way to make sure the residents and the family feel supported and a part of.

A true blessing to have found this sober living! My family was at our wits end, and did not know where to turn. A therapist referred us to Derek and I am so glad they did. From our first conversation, I trusted him and knew Sam would be in good hands. Very good place and good people. Great sense of community and brotherhood.

Very excited and happy we decided to send our son here. There are so many sober livings to choose from and I think my husband and I picked a good one. I love the structure and the sense of brotherhood, and I am always kept in the loop by the house manager, Derek.

Ever since I’ve moved to Design for Recovery, they’ve giving me an opportunity to work on myself and allowed me to create a set schedule and healthy routine to live in. House rules are completely fair and there are house meetings Sunday mornings for us to talk about how we can improve as men, and become better versions of our previous selves. Best decision I’ve made moving here.

So glad that my wife and I decided to send our son here! Dom has been trying to get sober now for quite some time, and its always hit or miss with the sober livings he goes to after rehab. We immediately were drawn to Design for Recovery because of the structure and community, Dom not so much. After a few weeks in their program I could tell things were starting to change, as Dom started taking pride in the small things; getting up on time, making his bed and cleaning up after himself. It is so nice to begin to see the changes, very hopeful for what is to come.

After years of bouncing from detox to rehab, my son found Design. This house offers structure, they work WITH the client not ON them..After being in the sober house for over a year, I went to visit my son, I had to see the place that had saved him, and i was impressed .It was just a house, full of guys, but in thier own casual way they were all working that next step.

Just what I needed.... I have been to alot of sober livings and halfway houses over the last 5 years, but never have found anything as special as Design for Recovery. A few things that make this place different: staff actually care, and this is a safe, supportive environment. I love that there is structure, and everyone takes their sobriety seriously.

Our son was among the first ones admitted at Design for Recovery when they just opened their first house. We were skeptical and quite desperate because we have been through many years of struggle with his addiction. Now, more than a year and a half later, we can say that the staff is just incredible! Our son is clean and functioning, he has his life back! I dont know how they do it but they have such a personal connection and intelligent, individual approach in a very friendly, relaxed but structured environment. They gave us back our hope, our son, our life! We would highly recommend them to everybody. It gives us a great comfort to know that although our son lives independently now, he has the connection and support of the staff.

Design for Recovery is an all male sober living that creates a positive environment for alcoholics/addicts to grow and live their life. It gives them the tools they need to stay clean while having fun in sobriety. Their staff is well grounded and are highly invested in their clients to live a happy and full life free of drugs and alcohol.

Design for recovery staff is very caring and does what it takes to help addicts that are struggling in early recovery. Gender specific housing illustrates their commitment to helping men in recovery. If your son or loved one is struggling with substance abuse problems, Design is a great option. 😊

My best friend went to Design and says that this place changed his life in a drastic way for the better. He was hopeless when he first entered but the strong community there uplifted him and helped him get on his feet until he was able to do it for himself. I would highly recommend.
