Making Sober Living Affordable and Accessible in Covina, CA
The Puente House Foundation is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that provides financial assistance for individuals seeking sober living in Covina and the surrounding areas. Our mission is to break down financial barriers so those ready for recovery can access the safe, supportive environment they need to heal and rebuild their lives. Learn more about Puente House sober living programs in Covina.
Why Your Support Matters
Recovery is possible, but it’s not always affordable. Many men and women who are committed to sobriety cannot afford quality sober living homes, especially during early recovery when employment may still be unstable. That’s where the Puente House Foundation steps in.
We provide scholarships and financial aid for those who want to live in structured, supportive sober housing but cannot afford it independently.
We serve individuals who are:
- Transitioning out of inpatient treatment centers or detox facilities
- Recently released from jail or prison and committed to recovery
- Recently released from jail or prison and committed to recovery
- Seeking long-term sobriety in a clean, drug-free environment
- In need of a second chance and a supportive sober community

Some of Our Success Stories in Covina, CA

In 2015, I faced a tough choice: continue drinking and risk severe consequences or get sober and become the person I envisioned. I chose sobriety and lived in Puente House for six months, where I received invaluable support from Karl Moris and the house managers. Thanks to their guidance and the structured environment, I have maintained my sobriety for over three years.

Today is three years. Thank you, Puente House, for helping me turn my life around. If it weren’t for the structure and discipline I learned living at 444, I wouldn’t be the man I am today. My family and I thank you.
– Nick

In my three years at Puente House since December 2014, I have found a supportive community and a transformative twelve-step program that provides the needed structure. I am grateful for the friendships I’ve formed and proud to call Puente House my home.
– Jennifer

I moved into the Puente House on September 25, 1996, hoping for a change. The support from the staff and friends there was crucial to my sobriety, and I’m truly grateful. P.S. My mom thinks you’re great, too!
– Steve

I’m celebrating one year of sobriety today, having been clean since October 24, 2016. A year ago, I thought I couldn’t stay sober for more than a week. At Puente House in Southern California, I found the support I needed. I was lost, but the staff and residents welcomed me when I finally decided to change my life.
– Genevieve

I can hardly believe it, but today marks one year of being clean and sober—a true blessing. A year ago, I felt hopeless and afraid. I’m grateful to my recovery family, the Puente House, Karl Moris, and John Boots for giving me the tools to live a fulfilling life. I love who I am today and appreciate all the love and support I’ve received.
– Austin
