When the client has finished their residential short-term treatment, they usually continue their recovery process by heading into outpatient treatment, attending meetings, therapy or counseling. Seriously addicted individuals who have a long history of substance abuse will benefit from dwelling at a sober living home after they finish treatment. This will help them solidify their new found sobriety and give them strength and support.
