When patients have not been given enough time to assimilate and learn how to apply principals of sober living, the chances of relapse increase to more than 80%.
Souls Harbor exists to address homelessness, addiction, and substance abuse by providing a supportive, transitional housing environment. Studies show that individuals in recovery are more likely to succeed when they have access to stable housing and supportive services. Transitional housing models, which offer a combination of safe shelter, counseling, and life skills development, significantly improve recovery outcomes by fostering long-term sobriety and stability (National Alliance to End Homelessness, SAMHSA).
There are two main reasons that there is a desperate need for more transitional housing:
It is extremely improbable that someone can recover and fully break free from addiction and homelessness without transitional housing.
Transitional housing provides needed benefits such as:
The availability of transitional housing is decreasing at an alarming rate. Which means safe places and opportunities for those who struggle with substance abuse are shrinking.
Over the last 9 years (since 2015), the number of temporary housing beds (Emergency Shelter, Safe Haven & Transitional Housing) has decrease by 9%.
