- General Info
- What's Different About Into Action? It's simple. If you've heard horror stories about sober living, we want you to know that this is the real deal. We are not and never will be a "flop house". Members must not only be serious about their sobriety to live at Action House, they must prove it through their willingness weekly to: 1. Follow house rules. 2.Maintain their sobriety at all times. Tested a minimum of once per week. Alcohol tested throughout week. 3. Have sponsor within 1 week. 4. Contacting sponsor throughout week. 5. Make regular progress on step work. 6. Hold a job (Must obtain job within 2 weeks of moving in) Our Primary Purpose: To provide a comfortable and quality sober living environment in surroundings conducive to recovery, spiritual growth, and personal development through the action of the 12 Steps, which helps the member find a power greater than themselves which helps them to live successfully as sober men. The Program Every day an alcoholic/addict goes without having a paradigm shift in his thinking/consciousness, is another day risking drinking or using again. Therefore, we require that our members regularly attend 12 step meetings, but we also feel that attending meetings without working the program is not enough to have a healthy sobriety. Therefore, we also require our house members obtain (and use) a sponsor, work the steps, hold a job, and eventually move on to sponsoring people themselves as the real medicinal affect of the 12 steps is... One alcoholic helping another.. Verified Meeting Attendance Meetings are the building blocks of a healthy recovery program. 12 Step meetings help create a network of support, a pipeline for education in working their program of action and sobriety. It also provides a safe place they can turn to. We not only require meeting attendance and proof of attendance. Service Work Ultimately, the goal is to remain sober and grow in our recovery. To do this, we must grow in our ability to be of service. First we consider members holding other members accountable as the first step towards service work. Secondly, by seeking other alcoholics to work with, being available to neighbors in need, and by keeping the house in excellent shape for those who come after us. Employment Residents are required to work. However, in addition to full or part time jobs, this work may take the form of schooling, additional meetings, additional church activities/commitments, and volunteer work. Obtain and Use a Sponsor Our residents agree to obtain a sponsor within 10 days. The sponsor sign an Intent to Sponsor form in which the sponsor agrees to take them through the steps in 60 days and that Action House may check in with the sponsor to verify that the resident is calling daily, accomplishing homework, and following directions. Phase and Points Based Living We have a phase and points system in which everything is based on the philosophy that individual action = reward. Phasing up is based on completing the 12 Steps, which leads to more entitled house privileges (and respect). Whereas the points system is based on providing anyone, mostly regardless of phase, a method to earn points for healthy actions and spend them on one time rewards (ranging from weekly fee discounts to curfew extensions.) Accountability This is the probably Into Action's biggest difference. We actually expect and verify regularly that our men are doing what they signed up for, which is progressing in their program of sobriety and daily life.

If you're looking for the BEST sober living house in OKC, look no further. The owner, Brian, is very serious about staying sober while living a good life. The house is also close to a bunch of businesses.
I moved into the newest residence opened by Into Action in Edmond 7 days ago. I was the second person in the new house and within days, convinced one of my pre-sober days friend to apply for residency and he has moved in since then. More importantly though, I am continually interested in how the organization is managed, as well as the program offered. In a nutshell, I am a REALLY happy guy and feel blessed to have been offered this opportunity. Though it is significantly different than my previous months in another sober living environment, I truly feel this move was to my advantage. And, just saying, if you are a “numbers” person, you will probably enjoy raking in the “points” for previous and current life activities, as I have. I used them to lower my rent, the first full week there. Plus, I started the savings program offered by Brian S. and the crazy guy, at this time, will match 40% of my savings. No kidding.
This is a great private owned sober house. Very structured, but in a good way. Nice accommodations and close to many work options and bus rouys for those without trsnsportation.
Really nice accommodations in a super convenient location that is easily walkable to many businesses. Much needed structure provided for those who need it to get their lives together, much like myself. Would definitely recommend to anyone who needs some help.
A great house. To get yourself back on your feet! So if your ready to get your life back together. Then give this place a try
Moved into the house a few days ago. House is very comfortable and clean. Owner is very helpful and involved, roommates are great guys and easy to get along with. The points/phase system here is a good way to help you stay sober as well as keeping you involved with the house and AA. If you are willing to put in the effort to actually WORK the house program as well as the program of Alcoholics Anonymous then this program will definitely work for you.
if you are serious about getting sober this is the place for you. full of accountability , wherever you go. we lean on each other as a whole. full of edification if you feel like your having a bad day, there is always a brother to pick you up. we strive together as a whole. however this is not a flop house the guys here are very serious about sobriety and are doing everything it take to gain all the tools to remain sober for the rest of are lives and to be successful. its a new beginning.
Into action is the place to come if your looking for recovery. I needed a place with structure and accountability and there is plenty here. The living quarters are really nice clean and all the guys are awesome. I like it here .it's helping me take responsibility for myself and try and help others. If your serious In your sobriety come check us out.
In to action is a very well structured clean inviroment. It teaches you how to be accountable and how to hold others accountable. More importantly it is set up and main purpose is to keep you sober by working the 12 steps of AA. It has helped me an enormous amount and for that I am extremely grateful. So I highley recommend this to anyone that is ready to be sober and accountable.
Its a great place to learn how to have a successful life without the use of mind altering substances. I have been here a little over a month and have learned so much and still have a ways to go but I know that the guys here will help me every step of the way as long as they see me trying. This place is close to a great meeting, lots of job opportunities, and is well structured.
I've lived at Into Action Sober Living (a.k.a. Action House) for 2 months now, and can tell you that if you're looking for REAL sober living, then this is it! But if you're not serious about your sobriety, then take my advice and don't bother, because it's not just a place to live. It's a place to grow in your recovery from alcoholism / drug addiction. And believe me, sitting on your bum isn't an option here :)
