Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for people in DE. who have graduated a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program but still require time to completely re-acclimate to regular 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 formidable place now that he or she has to get through life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in DE. offers a safe haven where those who are in this stage of the drug rehab experience can little by little become comfortable with the idea of restoring their life without drugs and becoming independent. While in transitional housing recovering addicts can continue to participate in 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 good shot at remaining abstinent and being to lead a productive and happy life.
