Mission Statement

“To inspire positive change through honorable action”
Real Life Recovery is a recovery home based in Santa Cruz, California. We work to help restore, build, and unify the lives of addicts looking to make a change in their lives. Real Life Recovery is centered around creating a safe and structured living environment for individuals struggling with substance abuse.
We offer a peer led, communal living experience for those ready to learn effective strategies of cohabitation, conflict resolution, base level living skills, and coping tools for addiction. The client’s served are those that are houseless individuals, people coming out of institutions (jail, prison, treatment centers), and any struggling with substance use disorder and are needing safety and structure in a contained space.
