Transitional housing is a very beneficial resource for people in Ulysses who have graduated a drug or alcohol treatment program but still need time to fully re-adjust to regular life and the real world. For an individual who has abused drugs or alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can feel like a formidable place now that one has to get through life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Ulysses supplies a safe atmosphere where individuals who are in this phase of the drug rehab experience can little by little become at ease with the process of restoring their life without drugs and on their own. While in transitional housing those in recovery can continue to receive individualized and group counseling as needed to help them along, and also to obtain stable employment and housing so that they have a strong chance at remaining abstinent and being to lead a fruitful and happy life.
