Referrals & families
Partners in recovery.
Whether you're a treatment professional or a family member, First Spark Living is here to support the journey toward independent, sober living.
For referral professionals
A trusted next step for your clients.
We work collaboratively with case managers, counselors, therapists, treatment centers, and other referral professionals to help residents transition from clinical care into structured sober living. Our residence provides a supportive environment where individuals can continue building independence and strengthening their recovery.
With the resident's authorization, we maintain open and respectful communication with referral partners throughout the resident's stay and share appropriate updates when needed.
Prompt response
We respond to referrals within one business day and work quickly to assess fit and current availability.
Clear standards
Our house rules, expectations, and resident responsibilities are clearly communicated before move-in.
Authorized communication
With resident consent, we communicate with referral partners when appropriate throughout the resident's stay.
Collaborative approach
We value collaboration with the professionals supporting each resident's recovery and work alongside the broader support network whenever appropriate.

For families
Your loved one deserves support for the next chapter.
Watching someone you love struggle with addiction can be incredibly difficult. First Spark Living provides a safe, structured sober-living environment designed to bridge the transition between treatment and independent living — a real home where recovery, responsibility, and independence can continue to grow.
Families can be an important part of recovery. We're here to answer questions, explain what to expect from sober living, and — when authorized by the resident — maintain appropriate communication with family members and other members of their support system.
