DJ Housing runs structured, drug-free sober living homes in West Milford for adults building sobriety after treatment or in early recovery. Our residence is on Union Valley Road in Passaic County, with 24/7 staff, house accountability, and no fixed limit on how long you stay.
Sober living fits people who are ready to stay sober but not ready to do it alone. You live in a stable, substance-free home with others in recovery, keep your independence, and build the daily habits that hold sobriety together. That covers a few different situations.
People leaving detox, inpatient, or outpatient care often still need structure before returning fully to daily life. A sober living home fills that gap.
Others come earlier in recovery and need a substance-free place away from the triggers of their old routine while sobriety takes hold.
Many residents work or study and need a home that supports sobriety instead of competing with it. Finishing a formal program first isn't always required.
DJ Housing is a shared home on Union Valley Road, not an institution. Residents live together under house rules, a daily routine, and clear expectations that create stability in early recovery.
The home stays substance-free through curfews, house responsibilities, regular check-ins, drug testing, and breathalyzer protocols. Staff are on-site 24/7, so support is there when someone needs it. Residents keep the freedom to work, attend school, and go to meetings while the house provides the accountability that early sobriety is hard to sustain without.
Support at DJ Housing goes past a place to sleep. Alongside the home, residents have access to:
