Newport Beach, CA (PRWEB) October 5, 2004
Sober Living by the Sea, which provides hope and treatment to those in need of assistance for alcoholism, chemical dependency, substance abuse and other harmful addictions, has been named one of the top 10 rehab centers in the world by Forbes.com.
Billing itself as the Â?home page for the worldÂ?s business leaders,Â? ForbesÂ? the Internet arm of Forbes Magazine Â? included Sober Living by the Sea in one of its ongoing Health/Lifestyle feature articles.
Forbes.com noted Sober Living by the SeaÂ?s location on the shores of Newport Beach, California, and mentioned the facilityÂ?s Â?big emphasis on fitness. There’s surfing, sailing and beach volleyball, as well as excursions to nearby museums or to their Lake Arrowhead mountain retreat.Â? With a highly credentialed staff of treatment professionals, however, the main emphasis at Sober Living by the Sea is always on treatment and recovery in a structured, supportive, tranquil setting.
Â?WeÂ?re thrilled,Â? says Bill Swiney, executive director of Sober Living by the Sea, Â?that an organization with the resources of Forbes.com recognizes the effort weÂ?ve made to create a suitable environment for recovery. ItÂ?s a fitting commentary on the types of facilities and treatment options available at our Newport Beach location.Â?
Sober Living by the Sea operates a number of facilities in the Newport Beach area, offering clients a 90-day residential treatment program and even the option of attending college while in treatment. Other facilities include Sunrise Recovery Ranch, an all-male, minimum 30-day facility nestled in the Southern California foothills, and the Victorian of Newport Beach, an all-female, 60-day treatment center for eating disorders in a home-like facility also close to the ocean. While each facility offers treatment programs to assist in the management of specific life problems, they share unique offerings Â? such as those recognized by ForbesÂ? that would be hard to find in more traditional treatment centers.
