FleaHab supports a healthy community where clients interact in positive ways.

Chris Loomis

“I was addicted to heroin and crystal meth, and completely in a hopeless state. I needed to do something to start my life over again. I am so grateful FleaHab was there.”

Henry ‘Hank’ Skipp

“FleaHab is better for me than standard recovery programs. FleaHab reconnected me to earth and mother nature.”

Want to congratulate Scott in photo one. He is stepping up as house manger at fleahab. Scott has been at fleahab for 19 months helping as assistant manger.

Really happy to see @cloomis12 our old house manager moving on and getting back on his own. Cris came to fleahab in 2017 and needed help bad. He was at fleahab for 7 months before stepping up as assistant house manger. 1 year in cris moved into house manger. We were lucky to have cris for 3 1/2 years. 🙏🏻🙏🏻 thank you cris. I love how it’s working using the guys at the house to move up and gain trust. Very proud of how it’s going. Big thank you to everyone that has supported us through the years. #sober #surf #helpothers #hike #exercise #itsworking #soberlife

FleaHab is grateful and overjoyed by a recent donation made by A Greener Source to help men who have struggled for most of their lives with addiction.
A Greener Source transformed FleaHab’s Sober Living House in Santa Cruz by donating more than a dozen pieces of furniture. Our living and dining rooms received two leather couches, dining room table, ping pong table, dining and lounge chairs, Ottoman, laptop tables, and more.
A Greener Source reached out to us because they heard how many people we were helping achieve sobriety and stay strong in recovery. CEO Darryl Denny wanted to provide a comfortable living space for people who are turning their lives around.
The atmosphere for everyone living at FleaHab has improved thanks to A Greener Source’s generous donation.
Thank you A Greener Source and Darryl Denny!
