Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for people in Hollins who have completed a drug rehabilitation program but still need time to completely re-adjust to normal life and the real world. For a person who has used drugs and alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can seem like a formidable place now that he or she has to get through life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Hollins provides a safe atmosphere where those who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation process can little by little become at ease with the process of restoring their life without drugs and becoming independent. While in transitional housing individuals can continue to participate in individualized and group counseling as needed to help them along, and also to find stable employment and housing so that they have a strong chance at remaining abstinent and being to have a productive and happy life.
