The Government of Saskatchewan is providing more access to addictions recovery services by funding 20 new second-stage sober living spaces in Lloydminster. The $225,000 in annual funding to the Oxford House sober living spaces will provide Saskatchewan residents in recovery with a supportive, substance-free environment.

Sober living spaces are for people who have completed initial treatment and are continuing their recovery journey. Treatment focuses on preventing relapse through counselling and connection to community and culture. Services are available to all Saskatchewan citizens.
Oxford House is a non-profit organization that provides affordable and transitional housing to individuals recovering from addictions who need a stable and sober living environment.

Client intake for 15 spaces started mid-August, while the remaining five spaces will open mid-September. The spaces are housed in four homes across the city.

These new spaces are part of the Government of Saskatchewan’s commitment to add 500 addictions recovery spaces across the province.
