***Management has the right to know where you’re at and who you’re with at all times.
House Meetings:

For every 1 minute you’re late you will phase down for one day. If you miss house meetings completely you will phase down for 30 days unless Clear Part Sober Living board determines otherwise. (Treatment is the only excuse we allow to miss a house meeting; work is not an excuse)

Recovery meetings:

 If you miss the 4 weekly required recovery meetings, you will phase down the following week. Only one zoom meeting is allowed per week unless otherwise approved. Other consequences may be implemented if continued to miss required meetings.

Employment:

If you do not get employment within 4 weeks of moving into Clear Part Sober Home you will remain on the probation period or will be discharged from the program. If you quit a job before finding new employment you will stay or go down to probation phase with possible added house arrest depending on the circumstance. (Exceptions to this can be made If appropriate)

Checking in:

If you’re not checking in as your phase requires you will not phase up until you are constantly checking in.

Substance use:

If you fail a drug screening while living at Clear Part Sober Living Home you WILL be Removed from the house temporarily or permanently.

House Vehicles:

If house vehicles are not used appropriately, you will get privileges taken away.

Behavior:

 If you are not respecting others in the house or if any violence occurs you will be removed from the house temporarily or permanently.

Theft or damage:

If any intentional theft or damage is done to Clear Part Sober Living’s property or house guests’ property you will be removed from the house temporarily or permanently.

Cleaning/Chores:

If your area of the room is not clean and/or you are not cleaning up after yourself you will have added chores to do and will not phase up. Extra chores may be added if you’re not doing your assigned chore, If continued you will phase down.

Rent:

 If your rent payment is late, you phase down to probation phase or house arrest. Length of time is determined by staff.

Law abiding:

We are a law abiding program. If you are not abiding by the law, you risk being removed from the house, and your probation officer and/or police will be notified. If you are not doing your breathalyzers or keeping up with the drug patch and/or other programming that’s court ordered, you will stay on phase one or phase down for a length of time determined by the board. If you do not have your driver’s license but own your own vehicle you cannot be driving. Your probation officer will be notified, and you will risk being removed from the house.

PLEASE NOTE:

If any policy rules or guidelines are broken, you risk being removed from Clear Part Sober Home immediately. In some situations, other measures will take place such as not being able to phase up or having to phase down with possible house arrest. Depending on what rules or guidelines that are broken or not achieved will determine how long you will remain on phase one and/or house arrest or being removed from Clear Part Sober Home temporarily or permanently.

Restrictions/House arrest- House arrest means you can only leave for work and treatment. In some situations we will allow you to attend NA/AA meetings (must be documented and signed on a meeting sheet), groceries and needs you must go with the house manager in your sober house or approved person. Staff have the right to take away in-person recovery meetings and all out of house activities depending on the circumstances.

Probation Period- This period is for guests who come in without employment or an established schedule and/or have not paid their entry fee. During this time, you will focus on job hunting and recovery only. Once employment is established you will move up to phase one. YOU must show proof of employment to both Sober Living staff and Mentor/Director.

EXCEPTIONS TO EMPLOYMENT: Must have a means to pay rent without employment. Must be in school or volunteering, if not working.
