Built on
compassion
and community.

Kavic House Recovery was built on a simple belief: that every person deserves a real chance at a healthy, meaningful life free from addiction. We're not just a place to stay; we're a structured community where residents find accountability, connection, and hope during one of life's most challenging transitions.

Our team includes individuals with lived experience in addiction and recovery. We know firsthand what this road looks like: the hard days, the small victories, and everything in between. We're here to walk it with you, one day at a time, with zero judgment and genuine care.

"Recovery doesn't happen in isolation; it happens in community. We created Kavic House to be the kind of place we wish had existed when we needed it most."

Everything you need to
build a strong foundation.

Early recovery is about more than staying sober; it's about rebuilding a life. Our programs are designed to give residents the stability, skills, and community they need to move forward with confidence.

Sober Living Housing

Safe, clean, and structured homes in Nanaimo where residents share space with peers in recovery. A drug- and alcohol-free environment built on mutual respect, clear expectations, and genuine support.

Peer Support & Mentorship

Connect with staff and housemates who have walked a similar road. When the hard days come, and they do, you'll have people around you who truly understand and who are invested in your success.

Life Skills Development

Addiction often puts everyday life on hold. We help residents rebuild practical skills: managing finances, preparing meals, pursuing employment, and navigating daily responsibilities, so independence becomes real again.

Intake & Case Support

Not sure where to start? Our intake process is straightforward and judgment-free. We'll take time to understand your situation and help connect you, or your loved one, with the right level of support without delay.

Structured Daily Programming

Routine is one of the most powerful tools in early recovery. Residents follow a daily structure that includes house meetings, shared responsibilities, curfews, and attendance at recovery groups, creating the rhythm and stability that lasting sobriety requires.

Family & Community Resources

Addiction affects the whole family, not just the individual. We connect residents and their loved ones with Nanaimo-area resources, referrals to treatment providers, and guidance at every stage of the recovery journey.

"CJ was the manager at the recovery house I went to when I first left treatment. I was apprehensive about moving into a recovery house, but looking back now it was one of the best suggestions I listened to. Under the guidance of CJ and the 12-step community, having the opportunity to build and expand the skills and lessons I learned in treatment saved my life. CJ is kind, compassionate, and supportive, and he provides honest and thorough feedback. I've since moved out on my own and have continued to build on my foundation and strengthen my recovery capital. CJ is still a good friend, and someone I know I can reach out to when I need help and guidance. If you're serious about your recovery, I highly recommend moving into Kavic Recovery House"
