Living & Recovery Residences provides safe, structured, substance-free housing for women in recovery. We exist because every woman deserves a second chance — guided by heart and purpose.

We are a women-only recovery residence in Orlando, Florida — a non-clinical, FARR-certified sober living home where structure meets compassion. Our mission is to provide a stable, safe environment where women can rebuild their lives, one day at a time.
We are not a treatment center. We are a home — structured, accountable, and filled with women who understand the journey because they are on it too.

"When we hold each other,
we hold ourselves together."
We believe every woman — regardless of her past — deserves the opportunity to rebuild her life in safety and dignity.
Structure is not punishment — it's the foundation of lasting recovery. We hold each other to high standards with compassion.
Recovery happens in connection. Every woman in this home is a sister — not a stranger. We rise together.
Our program is built around six pillars that create the conditions for lasting recovery.
Private furnished rooms in a clean, secure home. Your space is yours — private, respected, and maintained to the highest standard.
Daily chores, curfew, weekly house meetings, and recovery meeting requirements build the discipline that sustains sobriety.
Random, consistent drug testing keeps every resident safe and accountable — a non-negotiable standard we apply equally to all.
All residents are encouraged to pursue employment or education within 30 days. We connect residents with local workforce resources.
You are surrounded by women who understand your journey. Weekly house meetings and shared living build bonds that sustain recovery.
We maintain relationships with treatment centers, therapists, AA/NA groups, and social services across Orange County.
We serve adult women in recovery from substance use disorders who are ready to commit to a structured, sober lifestyle.
We believe recovery housing should be accessible. Our fees are straightforward with no hidden charges.
Living & Recovery Residences meets the highest standards for recovery housing in Florida. Our certification means accountability — for us and for you.
"This home gave me more than a place to sleep. It gave me structure, sisters, and the belief that I was worth fighting for."
Every woman who walks through our door is met with open arms and a community ready to walk beside her. These moments — real, everyday, and full of heart — are what recovery looks like here.
"You don't have to have it all figured out to begin. You just have to show up — and we'll be right here."
— Daphnee M. Rene, Managing Director















"I came here broken and afraid. These women showed me what it means to be held without judgment. I found my voice here."
"The structure saved me. I didn't know how much I needed someone to care enough to hold me accountable. This home did that."
"Sunday house meetings became the highlight of my week. We laughed, we cried, we showed up. That's what recovery looks like."
Whether you are a woman seeking housing, a case manager, discharge planner, or referral partner — we want to hear from you.
