Transitional Living at Grace Recovery TX
At Grace Recovery TX, we believe in the power of transitional living as a tool for long-term recovery. According to an article from the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), finding a recovery home is an important step in the early recovery process.
In a transitional living setting, clients can find support from peers as they learn to build a life in long-term recovery. Our Grace Houses offer women guidance and support from their fellow community members as they progress through each stage of their recovery journey.
Benefits of Community Living in Early Recovery
When it comes to trauma, substance use disorder (SUD), and co-occurring mental health conditions, the possibility of a relapse is common. Research has found that when those seeking recovery engage in living situations led by peers with shared experiences and similar goals, the chances of achieving long-term recovery increase.
With common experiences and goals, women can utilize a shared living community to find fellowship, and guide and support each other.
Transitional Living Homes at Grace Recovery TX
The four SUD transitional living options at Grace Recovery TX are designed to treat each person holistically in body, mind, and spirit. We base our recovery principles on empowerment, resilience, service, and community as our community members learn what it means to cultivate self-love and compassion for themselves and others.
While living at a Grace house, residents will work with a case manager and experiential recovery coach to develop short-term and long-term goals, build basic life skills, and address areas for growth in every aspect of life.
