Transitional housing is a very helpful resource for people in Newcastle who have completed a drug treatment program but still require time to completely re-adjust to regular life and the real world. To a person who has abused drugs or alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can feel like a daunting place now that he or she has to endure life without the use of drugs or alcohol. Transitional housing in Newcastle offers a safe haven where those who are in this phase of the drug rehabilitation process can little by little grow to be at ease with the idea of rebuilding their life without drugs and becoming independent. While in transitional housing recovering addicts can continue to receive 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 successful and happy life.
