When you’re ready to transition from treatment to independent living, choosing a self-pay sober housing option can give you control over your recovery journey. At The Anthony House, our self-pay program empowers men to move into a structured, support-focused environment without relying on insurance or external funding. By covering your own housing costs, you can start building a routine and taking personal responsibility from day one, setting a solid foundation for long-term sobriety.

What Is Self-Pay Sober Housing?

Self-pay sober housing means you directly cover your weekly or monthly housing fees, allowing you to avoid insurance limitations and eligibility hurdles. This approach offers greater flexibility: you choose the length of your stay, the location that best fits your needs, and the level of privacy and amenities that suit your recovery goals. With transparent pricing and no hidden fees, you always know what to expect financially.

Benefits of Choosing The Anthony House’s Self-Pay Program

Opting for a self-pay arrangement at The Anthony House brings several advantages:

• Autonomy: You decide how long to stay and which house to live in, fostering personal accountability.
• Consistency: As a self-paying resident, you’re less likely to face interruptions or denials of coverage, allowing you to focus entirely on recovery.
• Community: You join a tight-knit group of men who share your commitment, creating peer support that extends beyond formal meetings.
• Accreditation: All Anthony House locations are members of the Minnesota Association of Sober Homes (MASH), ensuring adherence to high standards and ethical guidelines.
