HOUSING AND LIFE SKILLS: THE RECOVERY RESIDENCES ARE SOBER, SAFE AND HEALTHY LIVING ENVIRONMENTS WHERE RESIDENTS ARE MOST LIKELY TO ACHIEVE RECOVERY FROM ALCOHOL, DRUGS AND OTHER ASSOCIATED PROBLEMS.

THE GOAL OF THE RECOVERY RESIDENCES' ARE TO ASSIST THE PARTICIPANTS TO MAKE TRANSITIONS TO INDEPENDENT, PRODUCTIVE AND MEANINGFUL LIVES OF THEIR OWN CHOOSING. ALL RECOVERY HOUSES ARE OWNED OR RENTED BY THE ORGANIZATION. THE PROGRAM ALSO HELPS PARTICIPANTS IN SEARCHING FOR AND FINDING EMPLOYMENT. PARTICIPANTS ARE EXPECTED TO ATTEND LIFE SKILLS CLASSES AS NEEDED TO ASSIST IN THEIR RE-ENTRY INTO THE COMMUNITY. LIFE SKILLS ARE ESSENTIALLY THOSE ABILITIES THAT HELP PROMOTE MENTAL WELL-BEING AND COMPETENCE IN PEOPLE AS THEY FACE THE REALITIES OF LIFE. THESE LIFE SKILLS ARE GENERALLY APPLIED IN THE CONTEXT OF HEALTHY AND SOCIAL EVENTS.
