House Expectations
Clear structure and compassionate accountability create the foundation for lasting sobriety.
A Supportive Framework for Your Recovery
At Delilah's Women's Sober Living, our expectations are not designed to restrict you — they are crafted to protect your peace, restore healthy habits, and give you the stability needed to build an independent, fulfilling life.
Absolute Sobriety & Drug-Free Living
Zero tolerance for alcohol, unauthorized prescription medications, or illicit substances. Random drug screenings and breathalyzers are conducted to protect every resident's sobriety and security.
Active Recovery Program
Residents must actively engage in recovery by attending regular 12-step or equivalent community meetings, working with a sponsor/mentor, and/or participating in outpatient treatment programs.
Productive Daily Routine
Sobriety thrives on purpose. Residents are expected to maintain employment, actively seek jobs, attend accredited school/trade classes, or engage in meaningful community volunteer service.
Mandatory House Meetings & Chores
Attendance at weekly house family meetings is required. Residents share chore responsibilities to keep our home sparkling clean, organized, and welcoming.
Curfews & Accountability
Reasonable curfews are maintained to foster healthy sleep habits and personal safety. Overnight passes may be earned based on program phase, trust, and consistent adherence to guidelines.
Mutual Respect & Peaceful Environment
Delilah's is a sanctuary of healing. We expect kindness, honesty, respect for fellow residents' personal belongings and privacy, and a cooperative sisterhood attitude.
