Old Pueblo Community Services (OPCS) is a Tucson-based nonprofit offering sober living for individuals exiting prison, recovering from addiction, experiencing homelessness, or reentering civilian life as veterans. Residents live in furnished housing with 24/7 staff support. With no entry barriers like sobriety or justice history, OPCS creates individualized plans focused on safety, stability, and the path to permanent housing. OPCS supports the full spectrum of recovery needs with trauma therapy, addiction counseling, and recovery models like 12-Step and SMART Recovery. Veterans receive specialized support through VA partnerships. Case managers help with job readiness, benefits, life skills, and family reunification. Evidence-based and person-centered care helps clients rebuild lives with dignity, self-determination, and long-term success in mind. Residents live in shared, fully furnished apartments with kitchens, bathrooms, and laundry access. Essentials like food, clothing, and household supplies are available. Outdoor spaces, transit access, and group areas foster connection and independence. Designed for safety and comfort, OPCS housing supports veterans and civilians alike in building healthy, sustainable lives within a caring recovery community.
