About Retreat Residences.
The community of greater Auckland has long been known as one of the most vibrant recovery communities in the country. The Retreat will operate several long term Residences which will serve as transitional, self- governing sober living facilities for men and women. The Retreat Residences give individuals the opportunity to put into practice the principles of recovery embodied in the Twelve Steps of Alcoholics Anonymous. With it’s close proximity to AA meetings, Coffee houses and employment opportunities, residents become fully immersed in the recovery community and are provided the time, structure and support essential to building a strong foundation for recovery.
Housed separately, men and women work closely with sponsors to create a safe supportive environment while establishing a solid foundation for recovery. Each resident commits to living at the Retreat Residence for a minimum of six months. The fee will be reasonable and affordable. It is yet to be worked out as of course we do not have these residences in place at the time of writing but in the USA the fee is $100 per week.
