Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for individuals in Deer who have graduated a drug rehab program but still need time to completely re-acclimate to regular life and the real world. For an individual who has abused drugs or alcohol to self medicate and especially for long term addicts, the world can seem like a formidable place now that one has to get through life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Deer provides a safe atmosphere where those who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation experience can little by little become at ease with the idea of rebuilding 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 stable employment and housing so that they have a good shot at remaining abstinent and being to have a productive and happy life.
