Sony Perlman, LMSW

Our Founder & Director

Leadership with Vision and Compassion

With over two decades of expertise in the addiction field, Sony Perlman established Our Village to address a noticeable gap in addiction recovery. Witnessing too many individuals investing significantly in rehab only to relapse shortly after, Sony identified the essential elements for long-term sobriety. Our Village, his distinctive sober living facility, has demonstrated a proven track record of sustained success. Through his extensive experience working with thousands of individuals, Sony is steadfast in his belief that everyone has the inherent capacity for healing.

The Heart of Our Village: Our Team

Behind every success story at Our Village is a dedicated team of professionals who bring love, empathy, commitment and expertise to members of our village. From counselors and therapists to support staff, each member plays a vital role in creating a nurturing and healing environment.
