Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for individuals in Koloa, Hawaii who have graduated a drug treatment program but still require time to completely re-acclimate to normal life and the real world. For someone who has abused drugs or alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can feel like a formidable place now that he or she has to get through life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Koloa offers a safe haven where individuals who are in this phase of the drug rehab experience can little by little grow to be comfortable with the idea of rebuilding 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 find steady employment and housing so that they have a strong chance at remaining abstinent and being to have a productive and happy life.
