Van Nuys is the most populous community in the San Fernando Valley, a dense, diverse, central hub of working families and young adults anchored by Van Nuys Boulevard and the 405 freeway. Simonds sober living is based in Granada Hills, in the northern Valley, a short drive from Van Nuys up the 405 or the surrounding routes. For a Van Nuys resident leaving treatment, that keeps recovery housing within the region, close to work, family, and the community a person is returning to.
Staying near home carries weight in early recovery. The months after a program are when relapse risk is highest, and a stable, substance-free place to live within reach of a person’s job, their family, and their routines is one of the strongest protections available. In a large, busy community like Van Nuys, where returning straight to an old apartment or an old crowd can undo hard-won progress, a structured residence a short drive away gives a person somewhere steady to rebuild from.

Sober living is a substance-free residence where adults in recovery live together under shared rules and structure while they rebuild daily routines. It is not detox and it is not a treatment program by itself. It is the housing layer around recovery, giving someone a stable, accountable place to live while they work, attend outpatient treatment, or return to school after a higher level of care.
A sober living home addresses one of the most common causes of relapse. Someone who finishes residential treatment or detox and returns straight to an unstructured environment faces old triggers with none of the daily support. A sober living residence keeps structure in place, drug-free housing, house expectations, curfews, peer accountability, and regular check-ins, while the person takes on more independence over time. The goal is a gradual handoff from full clinical structure to full self-direction.

Sober living fits adults from Van Nuys who have completed or are completing a treatment program and need a stable, substance-free place to continue recovery. It suits several situations rather than one.
The common thread is readiness for more independence paired with a continued need for structure. A resident holds a job, attends meetings or outpatient sessions, and manages daily responsibilities, but does so inside a drug-free household with peers pursuing the same goal.

Sober living at Simonds pairs stable housing with clear expectations that keep the home substance-free and recovery-focused. Residents agree to remain abstinent, submit to drug screening, follow house rules and curfews, and share in the responsibilities of a shared home. These structures are not punitive. They are what make the environment safe for everyone working to stay sober.
The residence connects directly to Simonds’ clinical programs, which sets it apart from a standalone sober house. A resident can attend the facility’s PHP or IOP during the day and return to sober living at night, keeping treatment and housing within one coordinated program. For a Van Nuys resident moving through recovery, detox, residential, outpatient, and housing all connect, rather than requiring a new provider at each stage. Length of stay is flexible and set by the resident’s progress and recovery goals rather than a fixed term.
Van Nuys is a large, active, densely populated community, and for someone in early recovery, coming out of treatment straight back into a familiar environment full of old routines and old contacts can be one of the hardest parts. A sober living home solves that by giving a person a different place to land, structured, substance-free, and separate from the settings tied to past use, while still keeping them close to the Van Nuys community and the people who matter.
That separation is not distance for its own sake. A residence a short drive up the 405 keeps a person near family, work, and outpatient care while removing the day-to-day exposure to triggers that a return to an old apartment or neighborhood can bring. Many residents attend IOP or an alumni program while living in the home, and the combination of a stable base and continued treatment is what carries recovery through the fragile early months rather than leaving it to chance.

Sober living is housing, so it is handled differently from clinical treatment when it comes to cost. Clinical programs such as detox, PHP, and IOP are billed through insurance, and Simonds is in-network with TriWest and TRICARE and works with most major insurance carriers on an out-of-network basis, with benefits verified in about 15 minutes. We do not accept Medicaid, Medicare, or Medi-Cal. The admissions team explains how housing costs and covered clinical care fit together before anything begins, so the financial picture is clear up front.

The residence is in Granada Hills, in the northern San Fernando Valley, a short drive from Van Nuys up the 405 and connecting routes. It serves Van Nuys and the central Valley, close enough to keep residents near work, family, and outpatient care.
Residents typically contribute to the cost of housing, since sober living is a residence rather than a clinical program billed to insurance. The admissions team explains the specific cost and how it fits with any insurance-covered treatment before a resident moves in.
Length of stay is flexible and based on recovery progress and goals rather than a fixed term. Many residents stay while they attend outpatient treatment and rebuild stable routines, then move to fully independent living when ready.
Residents agree to stay substance-free, submit to drug screening, follow house rules and curfews, and share in the responsibilities of the home. These expectations keep the residence safe and recovery-focused for everyone.
Yes. Many residents attend Simonds’ PHP or IOP during the day and return to sober living at night. Because both are part of one program, treatment and housing stay coordinated.
