Hope is the one thing no one can live without, and that’s precisely what recovery homes are trying to provide for people battling addiction issues.
In March, UT Health San Antonio announced that its program, Be Well Texas, received a $3.4 million grant for a pilot program to support recovery housing statewide.
Recovery homes provide housing for people who are in long-term care for addiction. Clark Cadwallader, co-founder of New Day Recovery Services, took us inside one of his facilities — a home with multiple bedrooms, living rooms, a meditation room and exercise equipment. People in recovery homes get help staying sober and accountable. Eventually, they transition into their regular lives and return to work. Cadwallader told KSAT the average person stays in his recovery home for about eight months.
