When you spend your day in treatment, your home environment must support your recovery journey rather than undermine your progress. Transitional housing helps you keep your momentum from day to day and month to month. It creates a solid foundation for sustainable recovery.
1 (800) 782-1520At Pinnacle Treatment Centers, our Transitional Housing Program (THP) supports patients who decide to stay within our continuum of care after completing one of our inpatient programs. Patients from our Detox or Inpatient programs who step down to our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) or Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) are eligible live in one of our homes and participate in the Pinnacle THP as they navigate the next phase of recovery.
A robust support network improves the likelihood of successful, sustainable recovery. When a patient is in an inpatient/residential treatment program, the social support system is baked in. They live at the treatment facility, and during the evening, they can reflect on the progress they made during the day, participate in activities, share their insights or concerns with their peers, and prepare for the next day of treatment.
When patients step down from the inpatient or residential level of care, they often lose the 24/7 support they need. Some patients return to a home environment that’s not conducive to recovery, disapproving of recovery, or even hostile to the idea of treatment and/or the recovery lifestyle. This can impair progress and increase the likelihood of relapse. Transitional housing helps patients by ensuring the time between treatment sessions helps, rather than interrupts the recovery process.
We can summarize the goal of Transitional Housing in one sentence:
Make the home environment a protective factor rather than a risk factor.
Patients stepping down from our Detox or Residential Treatment program to our Partial Hospitalization Program (PHP) or Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) are eligible for the Pinnacle Transitional Housing Program (THP). Patients stepping down from the residential level of care at other treatment centers to Pinnacle PHP, IOP, or OP may also apply to enter the Pinnacle THP. Members of the community who may not meet the criteria for inpatient treatment but still need PHP and a supportive living environment may also be eligible to directly admit to our program.
Patients who enter our THP pay a weekly room & board fee in line with fair market value.

In general, the more immersive the level of care, the more structured the requirements for our transitional housing program. PHP patients have more structure than IOP patients.
