Our Purpose

Recovery is possible. Community makes it last.

We exist to provide safe, structured, and supportive sober living for individuals committed to recovery — founded on accountability, faith, and genuine community.

Safe Homes

Clean, sober, structured environments with clear house rules and peer accountability built into daily life.

Peer Community

Residents live alongside others in recovery, building genuine relationships that sustain sobriety long-term.

Faith-Informed

Rooted in covenant values — honesty, service, restored purpose — welcoming residents from all backgrounds.

Recovery is a daily practice

At Covenant Life Services, we believe that recovery is not a destination — it's a daily practice, built one choice at a time, inside a community that holds you accountable and cheers you forward.

We started this work because we know that the gap between completing treatment and building a stable life is where too many people fall. A sober living home, done right, bridges that gap. It gives people time — time to find work, rebuild relationships, develop routines, and remember who they are without substances running the show.

Our homes are structured because structure works. Our community is close-knit because isolation is dangerous. And our foundation is covenant — a mutual commitment between residents and staff that says: we will show up for each other, tell the truth, and do the hard work together.

We don't promise easy. We promise present.

Built for people committed to change

Covenant Life Services is designed for adults who are serious about recovery and ready to live alongside others who share that commitment. We serve men and women separately, across multiple homes in the Austin area, providing the structure and community that make sobriety stick.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to be in a treatment program to apply?

You do not need to be currently enrolled, but applicants should have completed or be actively engaged in a treatment program — inpatient, outpatient, or IOP. We'll discuss your history during the intake screening.

Are men and women housed together?

No. Covenant Life Services operates separate homes for men and women to provide the most focused and comfortable environment for recovery.

What does it cost?

Monthly program fees vary by home and room type. We work with residents on payment planning and can discuss financial assistance options during your intake call. Contact us directly for current rates.

How long can I stay?

There is no fixed time limit. Most residents stay between 6 and 18 months. Length of stay is based on your individual recovery plan, progress, and compliance with house expectations.

What are the house rules?

All residents are required to maintain sobriety, submit to regular drug and alcohol testing, attend weekly house meetings, maintain employment or be actively seeking it, respect curfew, and contribute to shared household responsibilities.

Can I have visitors?

Yes, during approved visiting hours and in common areas. Overnight guests are not permitted. Visitors are subject to house manager approval.

Are pets allowed?

We understand how important pets can be to wellbeing — please ask during your intake call, as policy may vary by location.

What happens if I relapse?

We handle each situation individually with compassion. Depending on the circumstances, a relapse may require a return to a higher level of care before re-entry. Our goal is never to abandon someone in a moment of struggle — we want to get you back on track.

Is faith-based participation required?

No. While Covenant Life Services is founded on faith-informed values, participation in religious programming is not mandatory. We welcome residents of all backgrounds and beliefs.
