The Group Homes for recovering Substance Abusers Program provides for the statewide establishment of self-help recovery housing services and cost-effective method for many recovering individuals to avoid relapse. Under the law, recovering individuals will have the opportunity to develop a new alcohol - and drug-free lifestyle by accepting responsibility for operation of alcohol - and drug-free recovery housing. By having responsibility for operating a recovery house within a democratically run and self-supported system, individuals gain confidence in exercising responsibility without the use of alcohol and drugs.
