Transitional housing is a very useful resource for individuals in Gladstone who have graduated a drug or alcohol treatment program but still require time to fully re-adjust to normal life and the real world. For someone who has abused drugs and alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can feel like a daunting place now that one has to get through life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Gladstone offers a safe atmosphere where those who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation experience can little by little grow to be comfortable with the process of restoring 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 steady employment and housing so that they have a good shot at remaining abstinent and being to have a productive and happy life.
