About ACTS Aspen Sober Living Home
The Aspen home is part of the ACTS Recovery Homes network — five sober living homes across Austin TX operating under the same 12-Step recovery model since 2007. Meetings, sponsorship, step work, and community accountability are central to life here.
This home serves adults in recovery. If a different location is a better fit — including our dedicated women’s sober living home on South Meadows Drive — we will get you connected. We have five homes across Austin and we will find the right one for your situation.
What the Home Includes
Our Aspen Street home is set up for comfortable, focused community living:
- Furnished private rooms
- Shared kitchen and dining room
- Laundry on site
- Wi-Fi throughout the home
- Shared bathrooms
We keep our homes maintained to a high standard because the environment you live in matters to your recovery. The Aspen home is clean, well-organized, and held to a standard that reflects the work everyone inside it is doing.
What Recovery Looks Like at ACTS Aspen
Recovery at the Aspen home runs on a simple principle: the more structure you bring to your day, the less room there is for the thinking that gets people into trouble. That sounds straightforward. Living it is a different thing entirely — and that is why community matters.
Every resident at the Aspen home is connected to the 12-Step program. Meeting attendance, sponsorship, and step work are requirements, not suggestions. Austin’s AA and NA community is one of the strongest in Texas, and our Aspen Street location puts residents within easy reach of it from day one. Many residents find a home group in the first week and build lasting connections through the local recovery community.
The Aspen home has a culture of honesty that runs deeper than just following the rules. Residents challenge each other, encourage each other, and hold each other to the standard they expect from themselves. That culture does not happen automatically — it is built deliberately by the community that lives here.
House Expectations
Every resident at our Aspen home commits to the same expectations on arrival:
- Curfew applies to all residents
- All residents must be working or actively pursuing employment
- 12-Step meeting attendance is required on a regular basis
- Random drug screenings are conducted for everyone
- Residents participate in maintaining the household
These expectations are non-negotiable — and that is the point. When everyone in the house holds the same line, the house works. The residents who come in willing to be held accountable consistently get far more out of the experience than those who resist it.
A Day in the Life at Aspen Street
Life at the Aspen home starts early. Residents are up and out in the mornings — to work, to job searches, to appointments. The discipline of having somewhere to be and something to contribute is not incidental to recovery here. It is one of the non-negotiables, and it is one of the most reliable predictors of long-term success.
Evenings bring the house together. Shared meals, honest conversations, and the kind of community that forms when people are all working toward the same goal with real honesty. Regular house meetings keep the community tight — expectations are revisited, milestones are recognized, and the culture of accountability gets renewed.
Weekends at Aspen are for the deeper work of recovery. Step work with sponsors, additional meetings, personal development, and the recreational activities that sobriety actually makes possible. Many residents use weekend time to pursue GEDs, vocational training, or simply to build the habits and life skills that employment and independence require.
What to Expect When You Move In
When you arrive at the Aspen home, your furnished room will be ready and you will be walked through the house expectations fully and clearly from day one. Nothing is left to assumption. The community is tight-knit and genuine, and new residents are welcomed into it from the moment they arrive.
The first week is an adjustment — new routines, new faces, new expectations all at once. Every person in this house has been through those same first days. The community at Aspen understands what they require and does not leave new residents to navigate them alone.

Who Thrives at the Aspen Home
The residents who do best at Aspen are the ones who take the house seriously. They are not here to coast through their recovery or to find the loosest possible version of a sober living environment. They come in willing to be challenged, willing to be held to a real standard, and willing to give that same energy back to the people around them.
If you have tried other sober living environments and found them unserious — places where the rules were flexible, the culture was loose, and no one was really accountable to anyone — the Aspen home is different. The culture here is one of earned trust and mutual accountability. It does not happen overnight, but for residents who invest in it, it becomes one of the most valuable things about their time here.
