Sober Living Residences In Vero Beach

THE DUDE RANCH

Determined to be the best sober living community for men in south Florida, we base our philosophies on the principles and traditions of Alcoholics Anonymous. We are proud to be certified by the Florida Association of Recovery Residences.

We find that by living the principles of the program of Alcoholics Anonymous, our residents have become accountable and responsible members of our sober living community and society as a whole.

We have come to believe that the byproduct of working with a sponsor, working the 12 steps, going to meetings, and learning recovery behaviors makes the rules we enforce almost inconsequential. Our goal is to provide a sober living environment where the life experiences of our residents can be an example to the other members of our community. They are suffering from the disease of addiction. We learn and grow from each other’s recovery.

Vero Beach Sober Living Residences, LLC was founded by a man who has been sober since 1992 and lived in a similar transitional house early in his recovery. He continues his involvement with the program as outlined in the book of Alcoholics Anonymous. He learned that to keep the gift of sobriety; he had to help others.  

12 Steps to Recovery

  1. Admitting powerlessness over the addiction
  2. Believing that a higher power (in whatever form) can help
  3. Deciding to turn control over to the higher power
  4. Taking a personal inventory
  5. Admitting to the higher power, oneself, and another person the wrongs done
  6. Being ready to have the higher power correct any shortcomings in one’s character
  7. Asking the higher power to remove those shortcomings
  8. Making a list of wrongs done to others and being willing to make amends for those wrongs
  9. Contacting those who have been hurt, unless doing so would harm the person
  10. Continuing to take personal inventory and admitting when one is wrong
  11. Seeking enlightenment and connection with the higher power via prayer and meditation
  12. Carrying the message of the 12 Steps to others in need
