About 5A – Alcoholism & Addiction Assistance Association

Craig Shell's New Solution is a halfway house located in Phoenix, Arizona run by the Alcoholism & Addiction Assistance Association (5A). They provide a transitional housing solution for adult men and women who are adjusting to sobriety and can house up to 46 adults at one time.

They’ve designed this program to be the perfect next step for anyone who’s just completed an inpatient addiction treatment program. Along with sober housing, they also provide two nutritious meals a day and will transport you to and from meetings relating to your recovery.

Residents are expected to take part in a 12-step program of their choosing. You have the option to attend any of the over 50 meetings they host onsite throughout the week, or you can find a group off campus. The idea is that you get used to living independently while also progressing your recovery and building sober habits.

Many people struggle to jump right back into their regular routines immediately following time spent in inpatient treatment. A transitional housing program like Craig Shell’s New Solution bridges the gap between intensive treatment and normal life, giving you time to adjust to sobriety within a supportive and encouraging community.

New Solution is great because it allows you a lot of freedom without compromising the level of support they provide. During the day, you can come and go as you please. They’re conveniently located near public transportation options that make it easy for you to get around town. If necessary, they can also help connect you to local employment and volunteer opportunities. These build your experience and set you up for a stable, sober life.

sober-living iconSober Living Homes

Sober Living Houses (SLHs), aka sober homes or halfway houses, are safe, substance-free, supportive living facilities for those recovering from substance abuse. Ideal for those who've just been through inpatient or outpatient treatment, SLHs are supervised environments with rules that support sobriety, such as curfews, shared chores, and therapeutic meetings. Residents are also often trained on life skills and coping skills to make it easier to transition into society. SLHs also provide a strong sense of community that can lead to the kind of deep and lasting connections with other sober individuals that supports a new, healthy lifestyle.

12-step icon12-Step

12-step programs are addiction recovery models based on Alcoholics Anonymous (AA). A number of substance abuse programs (including some drug and alcohol rehab centers) use the 12 steps as a basis for treatment. Beginning steps involve admitting powerlessness over the addiction and creating a spiritual basis for recovery. Middle steps including making direct amends to those who've been hurt by the addiction, and the final step is to assist others in addiction recovery in the same way. 12-Step offshoots including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Cocaine Anonymous (CA), Dual Recovery Anonymous (DRA), Sex and Love Addicts Anonymous (SLAA) and Gamblers Anonymous (GA).

aftercare iconAftercare Support

Completing a drug or alcohol rehab program shouldn't spell the end of substance abuse treatment. Aftercare involves making a sustainable plan for recovery, including ongoing support. This can include sober living arrangements like halfway houses, career counseling, and setting a patient up with community programs like Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA).

inpatient iconInpatient

Residential treatment programs are those that offer housing and meals in addition to substance abuse treatment. Rehab facilities that offer residential treatment allow patients to focus solely on recovery, in an environment totally separate from their lives. Some rehab centers specialize in short-term residential treatment (a few days to a week or two), while others solely provide treatment on a long-term basis (several weeks to months). Some offer both, and tailor treatment to the patient's individual requirements.
