4 Phases of Addiction Treatment and Long Term Recovery

Detoxification

Detox is usually the first step in an addiction treatment program. But it is not considered treatment alone.

Primary Treatment

Primary drug and alcohol treatment is the most intense and proven form of rehabilitation.

Outpatient

Outpatient treatment program does not require an overnight stay in a hospital or medical facility.

Transitional Living

Transitional living offers short-term housing for persons who are struggling with addiction problems.

What is Transitional Living?

Transitional living or housing programs typically offer short-term housing for persons who are struggling with addiction problems. These may include shelters for people who may not have yet made a commitment to sobriety or housing for persons who are actively attempting to stay clean and sober. SLE’s (Sober Living Environments) are co-op style houses that accommodate persons looking for an alcohol and drug-free living environment after completing a primary recovery program.

Transitional housing programs may provide little or no formal treatment services, or may offer extensive counseling and case management as part of their programs
