About ACTS Meadows Sober Living Home
The Meadows home runs on the same proven ACTS Recovery Homes model that has been working in Austin TX since 2007. The 12-Step program is at the center of everything — meetings, sponsorship, step work, and a house full of people doing the same daily work.
This home serves adults in recovery. If you are a woman in recovery, our ACTS Meadows Women’s Sober Living Home is steps away on the same street. We also have three homes across North Austin. Call us and we will find the right fit for your situation.
What the Home Includes
- Furnished private rooms
- Shared kitchen and dining room
- Laundry on site
- Wi-Fi throughout the home
- Shared bathrooms
We keep our homes clean and well-maintained. The Meadows home is no exception — it is a comfortable, serious place to do the work of recovery, and the environment reflects that.
What Recovery Looks Like at ACTS Meadows
Recovery at the Meadows home is built on the ACTS foundation that has been working since 2007: the 12-Step program as a way of life, not just a requirement. Meeting attendance, sponsorship, and step work are central to what life here looks like every day.
South Austin has an active and welcoming AA and NA community. Our Meadows location gives residents easy access to that community — groups meet throughout the week within reach of South Meadows Drive. Many residents find their home group within the first week of arrival, and the connections they build through the South Austin recovery circuit often become some of the most important relationships in their sobriety.
What makes the Meadows home distinctive is the community that surrounds it. Having our women’s sober living home next door creates a broader ACTS network on the street — a shared recovery culture that extends beyond the walls of either house and into the wider Austin recovery community.
House Expectations
Every resident at our Meadows home commits to the same expectations on arrival:
- Curfew is in effect for all residents
- All residents must be working or actively looking for work
- Regular 12-Step meeting attendance is part of the program
- Random drug screenings apply equally to everyone
- All residents participate in maintaining the home
Consistency is what makes these expectations work. When everyone in the house holds the same line, the house holds together — and residents hold each other up. The accountability at Meadows is real, and it is mutual.
A Day in the Life at South Meadows Drive
Days at the Meadows home follow the rhythm that makes recovery sustainable. Mornings start with purpose — residents head out to work, job searches, or appointments. The structure of having a reason to be somewhere and something to contribute is not incidental to recovery at ACTS. It is one of the foundations of it.
Evenings bring the household back together. Shared meals, house conversations, and the kind of daily community that forms when a group of people are all taking their recovery seriously. Regular house meetings keep everything transparent — expectations are revisited, milestones recognized, and the culture of honesty that the house runs on gets renewed.
South Austin’s recovery meeting circuit is active and accessible. Multiple groups meet within easy reach of South Meadows Drive throughout the week, and the broader ACTS community on the street — with our women’s home next door — creates a network of recovery support that extends well beyond any one house.
What to Expect When You Move In
When you arrive at the Meadows home, your furnished room will be ready and you will be welcomed by a community that has been expecting you. The house expectations will be walked through clearly and completely from day one — nothing left to assumption.
The first week is the adjustment period. New routines, new faces, new expectations all at once. Every resident in this house has been through those same first days. The Meadows community understands what they require and does not leave newcomers to navigate them alone.

Who Thrives at Meadows
The residents who do best at Meadows are the ones who want to be part of something larger than themselves. The community here is genuine — it extends beyond the walls of the house into the wider ACTS network, into the South Austin meeting circuit, and into the broader recovery community across the city.
If you have struggled in environments that felt unserious or where the standard was inconsistent, Meadows is worth a serious look. The expectations are real, the community invests in the people inside it, and the results speak for themselves across nearly two decades of operation. People who show up here and commit to the work find that the work pays off.
