Abstract
An exploratory, qualitative study of homeless, recovering alcoholic men in a Twelve-Step program examines the problems they encounter maintaining sobriety. Using semistructured interviews, the experiences of these men were analyzed in order to learn how they stay sober without a formal place to live. Four kinds of special barriers to sobriety are inferred from their narrative histories: identification with a recovery community, sponsorship, step work, and time constraints. Implications for treatment and directions for future research are discussed.
