Guide
Guide only — no Northbound sober living
Northbound provides treatment and alumni support, not sober living beds.
Sober living homes — also called recovery residences or transitional housing — provide drug- and alcohol-free shared living with peer accountability, house rules, and often curfews or drug testing. They bridge the gap between inpatient treatment and fully independent living in Newport Beach.
Northbound Treatment does not operate sober living facilities anywhere in California or Washington. We are a licensed treatment provider — detox, residential, PHP, and virtual IOP — not a housing operator. This page helps Newport Beach families understand options after formal treatment ends.
Quality sober living varies by licensing, staff qualifications, and whether active outpatient treatment is required. Many clients pair external recovery housing with HomeBound virtual IOP or alumni supports from Northbound rather than housing alone.
Our aftercare team discusses safety, location, house rules, and how to vet providers — without selling beds we do not own. Alumni events and relapse-prevention planning continue regardless of where you live in Newport Beach, CA.

Local context
Housing after PHP in Newport Beach
Many PHP graduates live with family in Orange County or choose third-party sober living while attending HomeBound.
We help families evaluate house rules, curfews, and distance to PHP or virtual session times — without operating our own facility.
Alumni programming offers community beyond any single sober living contract.
Newport Beach families often ask how Northbound differs from other providers — we concentrate on-site detox and residential at one Garden Grove campus, PHP at Newport Beach, and virtual IOP statewide rather than spreading thin across many small sites.
Areas we serve
Our PHP campus on Campus Drive serves clients stepping down from Garden Grove residential care and families across coastal Orange County — Newport Beach, Corona del Mar, Laguna Beach, Costa Mesa, and Irvine. The setting supports real-world practice between structured daytime sessions.
