Transitional housing is a very beneficial resource for individuals in Catalina who have graduated a drug or alcohol rehab program but still require time to fully re-acclimate to normal life and the real world. For someone who has abused drugs or 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 endure life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Catalina offers a safe atmosphere where those who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation 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 individuals can continue to participate in individualized 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 lead a productive and happy life.
