Last House on the Block consists of residential homes where groups of recovering individuals rent to live together in an environment supportive of recovery from addiction. Each house is self-run and self-supported following a standardized system of democratic operation.

Per our Oxford House charter, the group has three basic requirements:

• it must be democratically self-run
• it must be financially self-supported, and
• it must expel any resident who returns to using alcohol or drugs

Individuals living in a Last House project learn or relearn values, responsible behavior and slowly, but surely, develop long-term behavior to assure comfortable sobriety – forever. Some individuals live at Last House for a few months, others for years. Together, these individuals develop the house into a place to learn comfortable sobriety without relapse.
