About Gratitude Retreat Foundation
The Gratitude Retreat Foundation funds sober-living facilities and sponsors individuals who’ve come out of an alcohol or drug rehab program and need a supportive step-down home environment. They provide funding for adults who apply to approved residential aftercare facilities in Torrance, California.
Sober-living homes provide a supportive environment as a bridge for those who’ve completed an addiction recovery program. By providing a structured environment with routines and responsibility, they equip residents with life skills to prepare them for reentering society.
To get funding from the Gratitude Retreat Foundation, a sober living home must offer weekly 12 Step meetings for residents and outside clients. These 12 Step programs are peer support groups that help those recovering from substance abuse disorders. They learn how to avoid relapse triggers, overcome addiction, and gain skills to live a healthy life.
While the Gratitude Retreat Foundation operates on donations and fundraising, recipients of sober living ‘soberships’ may be referred to other facilities for medical, physical, or mental health treatment. These additional treatments may be covered in full or in part by major insurers such as Aetna, Cigna, Kaiser Permanente, Bright Health, or Humana.

Treatments
The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.
Drug rehab in California teaches participants constructive ways to stay clean and sober. Treatment revolves around helping individuals stop using the substance they are addicted to and learn healthy habits to avoid relapse.
Opioid rehabs specialize in supporting those recovering from opioid addiction. They treat those suffering from addiction to illegal opioids like heroin, as well as prescription drugs like oxycodone. These centers typically combine both physical as well as mental and emotional support to help stop addiction. Physical support often includes medical detox and subsequent medical support (including medication), and mental support includes in-depth therapy to address the underlying causes of addiction.
Substance rehabs focus on helping individuals recover from substance abuse, including alcohol and drug addiction (both illegal and prescription drugs). They often include the opportunity to engage in both individual as well as group therapy.
