Transitional housing is a very useful resource for people in Olaton who have completed a drug or alcohol treatment program but still require time to fully re-acclimate to normal life and the real world. To someone 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 one has to endure life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Olaton provides a safe atmosphere where individuals who are in this stage of the drug rehab process 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 receive one-on-one and group counseling as needed to help them along, and also to obtain stable employment and housing so that they have a good chance at remaining abstinent and being to have a productive and happy life.
