EVOLUTION HOUSE
A Safe Haven For People Seeking Recovery
OUR MISSON
Evolution House provides safe housing and supportive, structured living conditions for people exiting rehabilitation programs or in some cases, jails, or other institutions. We understand the importance of having strong role models and mentors. Evolution House serves as a transitional environment between such programs and mainstream society. It has truly become a cornerstone in the recovery community.
As you can imagine, substance abuse takes people from all walks of society to extreme levels of degradation and demoralization. As the manifestation of a mental illness, it has caused much havoc in their lives. A lot of care and healing is required to help them begin a “normal” life, which encompasses a complete mental and spiritual overhaul. We have a model that has been proven to be very successful, helping a wide range of people from a physician trying to save his life and his license, to people who are literally homeless. Our program consists of requirements to attend 12-step meetings, have a job, work with a sponsor, attend group therapy, and learn day to day life skills such as chores around the house. We are different from other houses in that we provide a house manager who lives in the house 24/7 and conducts random drug testing. We work very hard to foster a loving environment with a sense of community and brotherhood. Our house meetings are focused on individual recovery goals and continued personal growth as well as conflict resolution within the house.

It has been incredible to see people who come into the Evolution House completely broken and grow to become an entirely different individual over the course of a year. They are renewed and strengthened with a sense of spirituality and a strong desire to help others who are suffering with this disease. Many of the men who have left our house are now sponsoring other newcomers in 12-step meetings and even come back to mentor the newest members of the Evolution House.
“The mentality and behavior of drug addicts and alcoholics is wholly irrational until you understand that they are completely powerless over their addiction and unless they have structured help, they have no hope.”
