Transitional Living

Transitional Living Program

The transition out of treatment and back into “the real world” can be replete with challenges and difficult to navigate. Sober living is a logical next step for many BRC clients because it offers a safe, stable and supportive environment where clients can ease back into the community at a healthy pace.

BRC Recovery’s supportive community-driven environment nurtures clients as they heal and plan for their future. Each client works one-on-one with a designated recovery manager and counselor throughout their entire stay.

The BRC Recovery program occurs in three phases over 18 months:

• 90-day Primary Treatment Program
• 90-day Transitional Living Program
• 12-month Aftercare Monitoring Program

Extended Care for a Permanent Recovery

The longer a person participates in a recovery program, the stronger chance they have of experiencing permanent sobriety. Our Transitional Living Program builds on the foundation our residents establish in our Primary Treatment Program.

BRC Recovery offers three levels of Transitional Living:

Transitional Living Programs That Build Accountability

Going from an environment as structured as Primary Treatment into sober living brings greater freedom, but that freedom requires responsibility and accountability–cornerstones of the BRC philosophy. As such, residents must comply with a set of rules that support a sober lifestyle:

• Refraining from drug and alcohol use
• Attending house meetings and group activities
• Completing chores
• Adhering to a curfew

Our Transitional Living Program helps residents establish and maintain accountability in a safe, supportive environment conducive to lasting recovery.
