Explore life’s adventures with us

  • Experiential Learning

    As you navigate through Ember Lodge's experiential activities, like paddle boarding, hiking, rock climbing, etc. you'll find yourself building a toolbox of life skills that empower you to thrive independently.

  • Self Discovery

    Embracing a new, independent life involves more than just abstaining – it's about finding your true self. We're here to help you unearth your passions, develop new skills, and create a fulfilling, joy-filled life beyond addiction.

  • Genuine Friendship

    On your path to recovery, walk alongside other young women, sharing this dynamic experience together. It’s the trusting, compassionate, friendships you make at Ember that lay the foundation for a brighter, sober future.

From ember, to flame, to fire

Addiction leaves us broken, empty, and as we venture out into this life free of substances, we can still feel clouded, timid, not sure where to begin.

But inside you is a spark. Right now, it’s a small ember of hope for your new sober future. One where you’re a lover, a friend, a daughter who makes her parents proud.

We’re here to help you kindle that ember and cultivate your fire. To bring out that passion, and help you become a tremendous force in the community.

 

What is a recovery community?

The jump from inpatient care to a new sober life can very often be too big of a step. That’s why aftercare programs, like our recovery community at Ember Lodge, exist. But what’s the difference between extended care, a recovery community, and traditional sober living? Watch our video to learn if Ember Lodge is right for you.
