Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for individuals in Penfield who have graduated a drug or alcohol treatment program but still require time to completely re-adjust to normal life and the real world. To an individual who has used drugs and alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can seem like a daunting place now that he or she has to get through life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Penfield supplies a safe atmosphere where individuals who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation process can little by little become comfortable with the process of restoring their life without drugs and on their own. While in transitional housing those in recovery 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 good shot at remaining abstinent and being to lead a successful and happy life.
