According to the National Library of Medicine, 65-70% of adults and children relapse within the first 90 days of attending in-patient treatment. Further, another study showed that only 21% of residents in highly supportive Sober Living houses relapsed within six months of attending treatment.

Sober Living Houses that are situated in a supportive surrounding environment are thus proven to be 46.5% more successful in keeping people sober during the time when they are most vulnerable to relapse.
