Sober Living East is a Sober Living That Truly Cares We Are a Family!
Ever since our founding, Sober Living East has become a trusted sober living facility for women in Los Angeles. Our track record in helping women achieve lifelong recovery stems from our holistic yet personalized sober living programs that focus on you as you prepare for an independent life after rehab. Our structured sober living programs are based on building confidence, life skills, and responsibility.
Located in Reading Ave in the heart of LA, our premier sober living homes offer a structured, supportive sober living environment for women dedicated to a sober lifestyle. When you join us whenever you decide to, you benefit from personal mentorship, life skills training, and a sense of community as you prepare for the life that awaits you beyond our four walls. We are committed to you in this sober journey and beyond.
Our Story Right from Reading Ave
When you first enter Sober Living East, it does not feel like a sober living facility; it just feels like home. Tucked away in the quiet neighborhood of Reading Ave, our sober living home stands tall (and huge) at 2,515 square feet. Originally built in 1979, it has now become home to the changing lives of women looking for a path toward lifelong sobriety. It is more than just a house; it is a place where you come to begin again for a fresh yet strong start.
Against the backdrop of a backyard with fruit trees that hearken back to a sense of nostalgia and the indoors equipped with modern amenities from air conditioning and central heating to a modern kitchen with cutting-edge appliances, a walk-in pantry, and a center island, you do not just learn to become self-sufficient but also find an opportunity to commune and relax together.
But the heart of our sober living is the living room. It is where you gather together with other residents for house meetings, recovery meetings, and other fun activities. Under the glow of soft lights and the comfort of soft cushions, you can share and grow together. You can also have light-hearted fun with a flat-screen TV and surround sound, as well as a bookshelf consisting of all your favorite books for quiet moments of reflection.
Whenever you want to step out, you just have to open the door and step into the backyard, where you can feel the LA sun on your face and the wind in your hair. You can also relax for a bit beside the pool or even engage in fitness exercises with our modern pieces of fitness equipment.

A New Way of Life
Sober Living East is where women come to begin a new chapter in this journey of sobriety. Our sober living in Reading Ave is a safe environment that offers ongoing structure and support as you transition to independent living. The recovery journey is not a straight line – there will be bad days, but when you embrace each day with a renewed sense of integrity, passion, and trust, you can bring transformational change that lasts a lifetime.
Many of our residents come to us after having detoxed, completed inpatient rehab, or even during outpatient rehab – while rehab is essential for your recovery, it is only the beginning. The real challenge is what comes after. The true mark of recovery is when you are able to sustain it. To sustain it, you need a new way of living. Sober Living East offers you a new way of living with a substance-free environment away from your familiar triggers and temptations, one-on-one mentoring, recovery meetings, sober fun activities, daily chores and routines, life skills training, financial and employment assistance, and more. We lay the foundation that strengthens your sobriety within your mind, body, and spirit. The whole you.
Structured Living
You may have often come across the term structure in recovery, especially in regard to sober living homes. Even here, for that matter. But what does it really mean? In a nutshell, structured sober living is where you get more active support than in other sober living facilities.
In our structured sober living in Reading Ave, women in recovery follow a set routine every single day for as long as they stay here. This can range from consistent sleeping and waking schedules, communal meals, daily chores and responsibilities, life skills training, recovery meetings, and house meetings to curfew.
In following a structured living pattern, the journey from a rehab setting where you receive intensive care and structure to a daily setting becomes easier. On the way, you gain the principles and habits you need to make you self-sufficient in the bright life that lies ahead of you. For instance, many of our residents benefit from grocery shopping skills, cooking skills, self-care skills, employment skills, financial skills, and more!
Sober Journey Beyond the Four Walls
If you are picturing your recovery journey in a sober living facility restricted to the four walls of the home, we urge you to think again. We are not limited by physical boundaries, it is the doorway to a broader set of experiences – from the beaches to the hiking trails to even some undiscovered beauty. Not just that, you also get to engage in sober fun and other daily activities outside of the house as well.
At the same time, we understand that many of you have needs outside of the sober living home. It can be therapy sessions, doctor visits, or even court appointments. Whatever your commitments are, we are determined to ease your life outside of these four walls as well.
We offer transportation services throughout the Reading Ave area, whether you want to attend outpatient therapy or 12-step and non-12-step recovery meetings, like Alcoholics Anonymous, Narcotics Anonymous, SMART Recovery, or Women For Sobriety. We are here for you on this journey every step of the way.

Sober Fun in Reading Ave
“Sober life is boring!” – you may have heard this often, even as you begin your recovery journey. But we are here to tell you something different. Sober Living East is located in Reading Ave, where you find easy access to all your recovery needs, but you also get to have some great fun!
There is a reason why the LA sober community is the most vibrant sober community in the world. We know how to have sober fun. Do “sober” and “fun” sound like a paradox? Only until you join us. There is more to LA life than going to pubs or bars. When you have a strong, sober community beside you, you get to have real fun and even wake up refreshed as you remain lucid and hangover-free.
We regularly take our residents on outings to parks, shopping centers, beaches, and other popular attractions. Just to give you a glimpse:
The Getty Center
With breathtaking art collections, stunning architecture, and tranquil gardens, you can immerse yourself in the wide cultural experience that Los Angeles has to offer.
The Last Bookstore
There is a sense of nostalgia when you step into The Last Bookstore – you will find not just books but record shops and photo booths as well! This is an out-of-the-world haven to immerse yourself and unwind at the same time.
Farmers’ Markets
We all love a bit of farmers’ markets to sample fresh produce, live music, or to just soak in some of the sober-friendly community air.
Griffith Park & Griffith Observatory
If you are in for hiking scenic trails to catch some sweeping city views while also exploring a stunning observatory, right here it is! The fun just quadruples when you bring your sober friends along.
Venice Canals & Boardwalk
You think of Venice, you think of the city of canals. But you do not have to travel all the way to Italy to experience this joy. You can stroll through these picturesque canals or just walk along the iconic Venice Beach boardwalk right under the LA sun.
