Substance Use Disorder is a vastly misunderstood disease. It tells it’s sufferers they do not have it and do not need help fighting it while it destroys their dignity and self-respect. It erodes their ability to love themselves and others. It undermines their capacity to function as the capable workers and caring family members they know themselves to be. Developing a new sense of self while integrating your family life, career and social life with your newfound sobriety is a challenging task, and it does not happen overnight. But there is hope for recovery from this disease, and you don't have to do this alone.
Perhaps one of the greatest reasons for failed recovery is that newly sober individuals have not developed the foundation and skill-sets necessary to navigate life without falling back into familiar, self-defeating patterns and old behaviors. Maintaining recovery and fostering overall wellness involves un-training old habits, learning better ways to be in relationships and manage emotions, and coping with stressors that previously set us back. It sometimes requires people gradually integrating back into their communities, families, and routines. This is precisely the opportunity we offer to individuals who are committed to their own renewal.
Lighthouse Residences provides safe, affordable, dignified living environments that support transformative recovery experiences for adults who have completed treatment for substance use disorder.

What Makes Us Unique?
We believe it is more beneficial for individuals who are recovering to reside in supportive housing located in the communities where they are going to be living long-term. No other organization offers sober housing specifically designed to serve the recovering residents of Chicago’s North Shore communities.
Before they leave Lighthouse Residences, we want our guests to have one foot firmly planted in their recovery network and the other comfortably established in everyday routines and important relationships.
While we do not claim to have a cure for substance use disorder and cannot guarantee success, at Lighthouse Residences we believe that by supporting transformative experiences you and your loved ones may have a better chance at achieving long-term recovery.

" In-patient treatment programs may last as few as 12 days,
but recovery from addiction is a lifelong process and for many,
recovery housing is a linchpin helping people rebuild their lives
through effective peer support, mutual accountability
and clear social structures. "
