About Hillsborough County Voa Living Center Iii, Inc.
Volunteers of America Florida’s Hillsborough Permanent Supportive Housing Program combines stable housing with treatment for mental illness and co-occurring substance use disorder. It's also open to individuals who are experiencing homelessness. The house is located in Tampa, Florida, north of McKay Bay and Hillsborough Bay.
I noted that the program accepts adults 18 and over as well as families. During your stay, you'll participate in therapeutic activities while interacting with the greater community through employment or volunteer opportunities. Individuals are responsible for paying rent each month.
Get a Hand with Stability
No matter the nature of your addiction, you're most likely experiencing some form of instability in your life. That's why treatment goals go beyond just addressing symptoms to include building a stable foundation for your life. This is done through life skills development focused on independent living and various social skills.
You'll also work with a case manager during your stay, which I believe is a huge advantage to connecting with one after treatment. They'll help you manage your daily responsibilities, like making and keeping appointments. In a way, they're like advocates who ensure you get the most out of what's available to you.
Individual Life Planning
The work that you do in treatment sets you up for the return to everyday life. However, aftercare is where you and the staff will iron out the details of your immediate plan following treatment. Will you continue to another treatment program, or join local support groups? Aftercare lets you focus on what you think will help you the most.
Their Individual Life Planning program combines elements of aftercare with long term goals you set for yourself. You identify what your goals are and determine what you need to do to achieve them. It falls in line with the idea of empowerment that runs through addiction treatment. Building road maps like these is also a great component of relapse prevention.

If you're over the age of 65, elderly rehab in Florida gives you the opportunity to be in a treatment program with your peers.
