Housing
We promote the success of each person by providing stable affordable housing while our clients are in recovery. Serving women and men in recovery from alcoholism, drug addiction and the cycle of abuse, we provide transitional housing and supportive services for people committed to recovery and maintaining a life of sobriety.
When a person in recovery has a place to call "home" there is a much greater chance of success. They are free to focus on their sobriety and healing without the added stress of homelessness or the crowded conditions of shelter life. They don’t have to worry about moving from place to place or wondering where they will sleep at night.
If your client meets the above criteria, you may fill out an intake form to determine if they are a fit for our transitional housing. Tracy might want to say a little more about the process of applying here and a timeline for moving in.
