Reintegration With Structure

Living in Principle supports residents as they move from early recovery into greater personal responsibility, independence, and daily stability.

Phase One: Structure and Stabilisation

In the first phase, residents focus on settling into a constructive routine. Weekly planners help structure recovery activities, personal responsibilities, meeting attendance, sponsor work, step work, and spiritual maintenance.

Phase Two: Responsibility and Reintegration

Once residents have stabilised, the second phase encourages greater personal responsibility. Residents continue applying recovery principles while building integrity, independence, and accountability in everyday life.

Code of Conduct

Residents must adhere to our code of conduct and house rules, which include daily and weekly duties, zero tolerance for substances of abuse, and mandatory attendance at a prescribed number of meetings each week. Random drug tests may be conducted to ensure a substance-free environment.
