Transitional housing is a very beneficial resource for people in Eighty Eight who have graduated a drug treatment program but still need time to fully re-adjust to normal 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 feel like a daunting place now that one has to get through life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Eighty Eight provides a safe haven where individuals who are in this stage of the drug rehab experience can slowly grow to be at ease with the idea 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 obtain steady employment and housing so that they have a good chance at remaining abstinent and being to lead a fruitful and happy life.
