Benefits of Transitional Housing

What is a Transitional Housing Facility?

There are a number of steps that someone struggling with addiction can take towards recovery. One that has helped many people is transitional housing. Sometimes referred to as a halfway house or sober living community, transitional housing aims to bridge the gap between inpatient care and complete independence.

What can I Expect From Transitional Housing?​

As the name suggests, transitional housing is designed to help the recovering person transition from more intensive treatment to a normal daily schedule at their own pace. Along with support groups and family counseling, Oak Arbor also offers vocational and educational training to help residents gain or reestablish normal employment while still receiving a managed level of care. This allows individuals to regain their independence with a solid network of support and removes the burden of worry from family and friends knowing that their loved one is establishing healthy habits in a safe environment.
