Transitional housing is a very beneficial resource for people in Sharon who have completed a drug rehabilitation program but still require time to fully re-adjust to regular life and the real world. To someone who has used drugs and alcohol to self medicate and particularly for long term addicts, the world can seem like a daunting place now that one has to endure life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Sharon provides a secure setting where those who are in this stage of the drug rehabilitation experience can little by little grow to be comfortable with the idea of rebuilding their life without drugs and becoming independent. While in transitional housing individuals can continue to receive 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 shot at remaining abstinent and being to have a successful and happy life.
