| From Strugglingteens.com New Perspectives Ocala, Florida Sober Escorts, Inc. is an escort service designed to assist individuals who are traveling to or returning from a treatment facility by providing a sober companion for the trip. Sober Escorts is not a transport service, but rather a companionship to assist and support the patient during their journey. Director of Sober Escorts is Rick Parrish. All escorts undergo a background check before accompanying clients and all escorts are individually licensed and bonded. After an individual has been released from a treatment program, the initial phase of re-entry into "normal" life can be very challenging after the structured, supportive environment of a treatment facility. Sober Escorts provides a companion who assists during this phase by meeting the individual at the time of discharge, making the trip back to their home with them, attending an AA or NA meeting with them in the first 24 hours of returning home, helping make the client's home a conducive sober environment, and providing additional support and encouragement. The escort can stay with the client as long as needed. Sober Escorts also offers to-treatment escorts to accompany clients on the way to a treatment program, as well as escorts for social events such as weddings or business trips where a client may potentially face a stressful or pressured environment.
