History
In the summer of 2008, Alex Sanchez introduced Jason Howell to the concept of Sober Housings as an important recovery support service that was very much in short supply. A call to Psychiatrist Robert Cantu about Sober Housing resulted in an introduction to Robert Bolhs the very next day. A month later, Jason Howell and Robert Bohls opened the doors to a pilot house and a year later, Alex Sanchez created SoberHood as a Texas Nonprofit. SoberHood received its 501(c)(3) status on January 10, 2010.

SoberHood's momentum continued to build with the creation of The Scott Daniel Fund in May 2010. Moreover, SoberHood is taking a leadership position in defining Texas Sober Housing and is expanding its awareness and community building activities.
