Next Step Village is dedicated to providing high-quality transitional and sober living care for people in recovery from drug and alcohol addictions. Our programs are designed to help people transition from the rehab environment, or their home, to a supportive sober living setting. We believe that compassionate outpatient treatment and aftercare services can help residents continue to heal from addiction and embrace long-term recovery.

What to Expect
At Next Step Village, clients can expect outpatient medical and clinical support and sober living opportunities in a safe environment that is conducive to recovery. It’s essential for each client to know what to expect ahead of time, including what to bring and what to leave at home.
We recommend that clients bring:
- Insurance and pharmacy cards
- Two weeks worth of seasonally appropriate clothing
- Unopened toiletries, including toothpaste, alcohol-free mouthwash and sealed shampoo and conditioner bottles
- Comfortable sleepwear
Items that are not allowed at our facility include:

What Does the Treatment Process Look Like?
Each client’s treatment plan varies, but the rehab and sober living accommodations process are similar for everyone.
Upon arrival at Next Step Village, each client must participate in a mandatory search and screening process to ensure that no contraband items enter the facility. Any items that are not allowed in the center will be safely stored and returned to the client upon discharge. A medical exam will be conducted for each client entering treatment at Next Step Village to assess history and establish goals for programming. This assessment evaluates past and current substance use and physical and mental health to inform each client’s personalized treatment plan. Each client will receive an orientation with our sober living house manager or other staff, who will introduce our living accommodations, amenities and other resources. After the intake process and once clients are settled into their living accommodations, they can enroll in the level of care that best meets their needs, whether it’s partial hospitalization, intensive outpatient or outpatient programming. Therapy options may include yoga therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), 12-step groups and more.

I truly got more than I bargained for with this program. I came thinking I'm going to get off drugs and alcohol I came here and realized it was deeper than that. It was my own personal things I never dealt with. This program the structure and most importantly the love they share here is what makes it different than others. U have to put in the effort but they are always here for you. I've had talks with all of them and they have never turned me away. They always go above and beyond to help any individual. Troy Mike Shauna clynt Daphne mrs B and Chris and even Veronica who seemingly plays a small token helped me when I needed it the most just by listening and letting me vent. They all here are great people and I came with a mindset to get clean and left with a passion for sobriety and the gift of freedom. Next step village in Maitland has helped me tremendously and though I'm gone they still answer the phone if I have to talk to them. Thanks so much for everything forever grateful for your support

As parents of someone who struggled to be successful in alcoholism recovery, Next Step Village, it’s Director-Troy, and the many dedicated Behavioral Therapists, create an environment of accountability and support with a myriad of resources to make life-long recovery a real possibility. As parents, in the last 4 months since our loved one has been a NSV resident, we haven’t felt the anguishing stomach-wrenching helplessness as we watched our loved one deal with addiction. We pray not only for our loved one’s successful life-long recovery but every resident who is currently there or who has been there. God bless the work this Recovery Center does! And God bless the staff who really are angels in helping the residents reach their long term sobriety. Our society needs so many more of these fine facilities.

I have resided at Next Step Village since October 16, 2018. This place in combination with their rehab ORC and TRV have helped to put me in a place mentally that I have not been in for a decade. Each day my life has been progressing. I want to thank Troy, Daphne, Mike, Shawna, Miss B, Clint and everyone there who put their all into keeping NSV afloat.

Lived here six months and appreciated the professionalism of the staff. Clint who works as a Behavioral Health Tech was especially supportive and non-judgmental and I thank him for his shared experience and positivity. Also the Director, Troy, is a tremendous asset for his willingness to help residents in any way he can. Every interaction with him was positive and productive. Overall I highly recommend this facility to anyone seriously committed to improving their life.

I've been at nsv for over a year now. It is completely transformed and changed my life for the better. I couldn't have done it without Troy, Daphne, Mike, Shawna, and Chris and Clint and mrs B. And all the other BHTs have been so helpful and always have been there for me. So thankful and grateful I found this place I can call home! You guys will never know how much you have changed my life for the better! Thank you and much love Austin

Many thanks to the staff here, those to be named specifically below. But first, I had never considered sober living in my past treatments. After staying at the Next Step Village, I wish I'd had done so sooner. My experience at The Recovery Village and then Next Step have both set me up for what I think is the best recovery possible. I could go on and on about why I feel this way, but honestly the most important component of any treatment and after-care treatment program (such as NSV - sober living) to me is the passion that staff exude to their clients. I experienced nothing less that professionalism, and frankly even a personal connection on many occasions to their commitment of providing the absolute best opportunity for their client's long-term, successful recoveries. I'd like to thank Troy, Daphne, Mike, Ms. B (I'll miss you sooo very much :)), and last but certainly not least, Shawna. I truly received more than I expected and feel confident in the foundation you all have helped me build for this next chapter in life. With gratitude - Chris F.
