Young Adult Transitional Living at Pivot

Where Recovery Becomes Real Life

When treatment ends, the real work begins. Pivot offers a structured transitional living program in Tucson, Arizona, designed specifically for young men who are committed to long-term sobriety, emotional growth, and building an independent life.

We bridge the gap between clinical care and full independence—with a program built to support real recovery, not just abstinence.

What Is Transitional Living for Young Adults?

For many young men, going straight from treatment back to daily life can feel overwhelming—or even dangerous. Our transitional living program offers a step-down level of care that keeps the support, structure, and responsibility in place while giving residents the space to practice living on their own.

This means:

  • More independence, but not too much.
  • Real-world responsibilities, with backup when it’s needed.
  • A community that holds you accountable, while cheering you on.

Who This Program is For

Pivot’s transitional living program is a fit for young men who:

Have completed primary treatment for substance use or co-occurring mental health disorders

Are ready for more independence but still need structure and support

Want to go back to college, get a job, or finish high school while staying sober

Need help building life skills, routines, and confidence

Are committed to recovery but don’t want to do it alone

Our Transitional Living Program Includes

We’ve designed our program around the pieces that matter most during early recovery:

Daily Structure & Responsibliity

Residents follow a personalized weekly schedule with daily check-ins, house responsibilities, and regular drug/alcohol screening. Progress earns more independence.

Recovery Programming

We are a 12-step-based program. Residents attend regular meetings, work with a sponsor, complete step work, and take on service commitments. Many participate in Wildcats Anonymous (the UA student recovery group).

Community & Connection

Recovery doesn’t happen in isolation. Through peer support, group activities, service work, and recreation, residents build healthy friendships and learn how to enjoy life sober.
