Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for recovering individuals in Zion who have graduated a drug or alcohol treatment program but still need time to completely re-adjust to regular 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 formidable place now that one has to endure life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Zion supplies a secure setting where those who are in this stage of the drug rehabilitation experience can slowly become comfortable with the process of restoring 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 find stable employment and housing so that they have a strong chance at remaining abstinent and being to lead a fruitful and happy life.
