Transitional housing is a very beneficial resource for individuals in Kenwood who have graduated a drug treatment program but still need time to fully re-adjust to regular life and the real world. To someone who has used drugs and 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 the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Kenwood provides a safe atmosphere where individuals who are in this stage of the drug rehabilitation process can little by little become comfortable with the process of rebuilding their life without drugs and on their own. While in transitional housing individuals can continue to participate in individualized and group counseling as needed to help them along, and also to find steady employment and housing so that they have a strong shot at remaining abstinent and being to lead a productive and happy life.
