Sober living in West Hills

Deveron Ridge is our West Hills house, our women's residence, and the quietest of our three, deliberately small at 22 guests, on a residential street at the far western edge of the Valley. Women-only with no exceptions, run for women navigating the things a co-ed house handles badly, and the wider Kokoro community, including the ranch campus with horses, is minutes away in Canoga Park.

Local detail

Why West Hills works.

01

Deliberately small

22 guests, the fewest of our three houses. In a small house nobody disappears, and the house manager actually knows how everyone is doing.

02

Quiet

West Hills is residential, low-density and at the far western edge of the Valley. For someone who does badly in dense environments, the difference from a busy street house is immediate.

03

Women only

No co-ed common areas and no male visitors inside the house, ever. Gender-separate housing is all Kokoro runs, and for many women in early recovery it is the difference that makes the house feel safe.

04

The ranch is minutes away

Our Community Street campus in neighbouring Canoga Park sits on one acre with horses, a pool, a basketball court and a rescued-animal sanctuary, and Deveron Ridge guests are part of the same community, including the monthly all-houses gathering.

05

Still connected

Woodland Hills, Canoga Park and Chatsworth are all minutes away, so meetings, work and outpatient appointments stay easy to reach.

Local questions

Asked about West Hills.

Is there a sober living home with horses in Los Angeles?

Yes, Kokoro's Community Street campus, minutes away in neighbouring Canoga Park, sits on one acre with horses and a rescued-animal sanctuary. Guests help with feeding and care. It is a recovery residence with land and animals, not an equine-therapy clinic, and we're careful about that distinction.

How much does sober living in West Hills cost?

West Valley structured homes generally run $1,200 to $3,000 a month. Kokoro discusses each placement individually, private pay and program-funded placements both work here, and requires no security deposit.

Is there a women's sober living home in West Hills?

Yes, Deveron Ridge is Kokoro's women's residence: 22 guests, women only, no co-ed common areas and no male visitors inside the house. It is our smallest and quietest house, with a house manager who actually knows how everyone is doing.

Does Kokoro's West Hills house accept MAT?

Yes. Guests stable on prescribed buprenorphine or Vivitrol are accepted, with the full written policy published on our MAT page.
