Transitional housing is a very useful resource for people in Hurt who have completed a drug rehab program but still require time to fully re-acclimate to normal life and the real world. To a person who has used drugs or alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can seem like a daunting place now that one has to endure life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Hurt supplies a safe haven where individuals who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation process can little by little become comfortable with the idea of rebuilding their life without drugs and becoming independent. While in transitional housing individuals can continue to participate in 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.
