Five Points has offered
quality sober living in Huntington Beach since 2002. Located at Five Points,
where Beach Boulevard, Ellis, and Main Street intersect from the pier, Five
Points is ideally located near transportation, shopping, entertainment, and
necessary amenities. Just a short bicycle ride to downtown Huntington Beach and
the Huntington Beach pier, there is always something constructive and
entertaining to do when not working or attending to recovery needs. Such
activities consist of the weekly Tuesday evening street fair which offers various
world renowned foods and creative products, the yearly US Open surf
competition, and the Fourth of July parade. Five Points is walking distance to
many local recovery meetings, the beach, and the beautiful Huntington Beach
library which is in the center of Huntington Beach Central Park.
Five Points offers clean
and structured housing for men in recovery and provides the accountability and
life skills that are necessary for building a useful and purposeful life. Five Points' structure is designed to mimic a
functioning person's schedule by
requiring guests to work and be out of the house Monday through Friday from 9
a.m. to 3 p.m., attend a minimum of three out-of-the house meetings weekly,
along with a mandatory house meeting on Thursday evening from 7:30 p.m. to 8:30
p.m., where issues and successes of recovery are discussed. Job search,
outpatient treatment, school, and voluntary work also count as work. It is through such activities that men gain
self-esteem and the confidence that is necessary in building and maintaining a
functioning sober life. The first Sunday
of each month there is a mandatory monthly cleaning meeting that is from 9 a.m.
until completed in order to keep the residence in the immaculate condition that
guests find attractive; otherwise, chores are assigned weekly to be maintained
daily.
Five Points units are nicely
furnished with granite kitchen and bathroom counters, hardwood and tile
flooring, and comfortable bedding.
Guests stay anywhere from two to three months to one to two years. Although there is no maximum length of stay,
there is a monthly minimum which helps to secure the stability of the
environment.
Five Points is highly
structured, serious about recovery, and expects participation from its guests.
The no-nonsense environment is for those who demand superiority and a quality
sober living environment while establishing and maintaining a firm foundation
on which to build their life.
