Hatch Behavioral Health connects women to safe, structured, and drug-free sober living homes in Anaheim and surrounding Orange County areas while continuing outpatient treatment.
The Hatch team coordinates care between sober living homes and outpatient programs (PHP, IOP, OP), ensuring consistency, accountability, and emotional stability throughout recovery.
Gender-specific environments promote safety, empowerment, and shared understanding among women healing from addiction, trauma, and co-occurring mental health issues.
A sober living home provides transitional housing with structure, peer support, and life-skills development—helping women practice independence while maintaining sobriety.
Recovery isn’t just about getting sober—it’s about learning how to live sober. At Hatch Behavioral Health, we know that women recovering from substance abuse, mental health challenges, or dual diagnosis conditions need more than a treatment plan—they need a community. That’s where sober living homes in Anaheim, California come in.
While Hatch does not directly operate sober living facilities, our team provides placement support to connect you with trusted, women-centered sober living homes throughout Orange County and Los Angeles. Once placed, our staff coordinates transportation to and from our outpatient treatment center in Anaheim, so you can attend PHP, IOP, or OP programs while residing in a structured, supportive environment designed to sustain your well-being and growth.
What Is a Sober Living Home?
A sober living home bridges the gap between the structure of rehab and the independence of daily life. Think of it as a recovery-focused community where women can heal, rebuild routines, and regain confidence surrounded by others on the same path.
Residents in sober living facilities share a home, follow house rules, and support one another while continuing with therapy, employment, or education. It’s an empowering environment that encourages responsibility, accountability, and self-discovery—without the pressure of going it alone.
Key features of sober living homes include:
- Safe, drug- and alcohol-free living environment
- Curated peer community focused on mutual support
- Daily or weekly check-ins with a house manager
- Access to 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA)
- Structured routine promoting stability and recovery-focused habits
- Opportunities to practice life skills like budgeting, cooking, and time management
- For many women, sober living offers a vital stepping stone in the recovery journey—a place to practice independence while staying connected to care and community.
Why Women-Only Sober Living Matters
At Hatch, our mission is to provide recovery spaces where women feel truly seen and safe. Many of the women we work with are survivors of trauma, balancing motherhood, or navigating complex relationships. A gender-specific living environment can make a profound difference in helping women feel secure and understood.
Women’s sober living programs are built around emotional safety and empowerment. By removing the distractions and pressures that can exist in mixed-gender settings, women can focus fully on their mental health, well-being, and long-term healing.
The benefits of women’s sober living include:
- Trauma-informed support and boundaries
- Peer connection with other women in recovery
- Focus on self-esteem and emotional regulation
- Shared experiences that foster empathy and accountability
- Space to rebuild healthy relationships and self-trust
- When combined with Hatch’s outpatient treatment programs, sober living becomes part of a holistic, empowering recovery system that honors each woman’s story and pace.
What to Expect in a Sober Living Environment
Every sober living facility that Hatch partners with upholds high standards of structure, cleanliness, and compassion. While no two homes are identical, the goal is always the same—to provide a safe, stable environment that nurtures ongoing growth and recovery.
Daily Life in Sober Living
Residents typically share bedrooms, contribute to household chores, and attend 12-step meetings, group therapy, or community outreach activities. Schedules may include:
- Morning meditation or journaling
- Transportation to the treatment center for PHP, IOP, or OP sessions
- House meetings and check-ins with the house manager
- Curfew times to ensure consistency and safety
- These routines help residents develop a sense of rhythm, accountability, and personal pride—all key ingredients for long-term sobriety.
Sober Living as a Continuum of Care
Sober living isn’t a stand-alone service—it’s an extension of your treatment program. At Hatch Behavioral Health, our PHP, IOP, and outpatient programs are seamlessly integrated with local sober living homes, allowing women to continue therapy while living in a recovery-supportive space.
The Hatch Model of Coordinated Care

Benefits of this integrated model include:
