Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for individuals in Gilmanton who have completed a drug treatment program but still require time to fully re-acclimate to regular life and the real world. To someone who has used drugs or alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can feel like a daunting place now that one has to endure life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Gilmanton provides a safe atmosphere where individuals 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 becoming independent. 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 find stable employment and housing so that they have a strong chance at remaining abstinent and being to lead a fruitful and happy life.
