Located in Merced, California, David J. Riordan's Hobie House provides residential treatment for men struggling with substance use disorders. As part of Community Social Model Advocates Inc, this 25-bed facility has been helping men 18 and older recover from alcohol and drug addiction since its establishment in 1991. The program addresses not only addiction but also co-occurring mental health conditions including depression, anxiety, and trauma through comprehensive assessments, counseling, and thoughtful discharge planning. Hobie House distinguishes itself with its social model approach to recovery, where learning happens through active participation and experience. Staff members who are themselves in recovery serve as positive role models for clients. The peer-oriented environment includes biweekly 12-Step meetings that foster mutual respect and self-reflection, allowing residents to draw strength from shared experiences. The facility offers practical support through same-day admissions, family visiting days every Sunday, recreational activities, and job readiness training. Residents benefit from a home-like setting that creates comfort during the challenging recovery process. For those completing the residential program, Community Social Model Advocates provides aftercare sober housing options to support continued sobriety and community integration.
