Attraction Based Model

The Atmosphere At Sober College Makes Sobriety Irresistible.

“I didn’t come to Sober College because I wanted to.  I came because my parents gave me the choice of rehab or living on the streets.  Thankfully I chose rehab, and they chose Sober College.  I have over a year sober now, and my life is better than I ever could have planned.”

Sober College is an attraction based program. At Sober College the staff and students, who have attended for a period of time, provide wonderful examples of where sobriety can take you. Sober College does not believe that they can force someone that does not want to be sober to stay sober, but they do think that after staying with us for a period of time students will be naturally attracted to sobriety. Alcoholics and drug addicts that do not think that they need to stay clean and sober may relapse. Many of the staff at Sober College are in recovery, and are a shining examples of the happiness that sobriety can provide someone. A want to be sober is not a requirement for long term sobriety. Many people that have come to Sober College and stayed sober did not plan on staying sober, but were giving a loving push by their parents or the courts to come to Sober College. This fact is mirrored by the amount of people that have gotten sober due to the court system through 12 step programs. Sober College helps many young adults become motivated to stay sober because they build lives that are so big and full.
