Transitional housing is a very beneficial resource for recovering individuals in Elizabethtown who have completed a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program but still need time to fully re-acclimate to regular life and the real world. To an individual who has used drugs and alcohol to self medicate and especially for long term addicts, the world can feel like a daunting place now that he or she has to get through life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Elizabethtown provides a safe haven where those who are in this phase of the drug rehab experience can little by little grow to be comfortable with the idea of rebuilding their life without drugs and becoming independent. While in transitional housing individuals can continue to participate in one-on-one and group counseling as needed to help them along, and also to obtain steady employment and housing so that they have a strong shot at remaining abstinent and being to lead a fruitful and happy life.
