In the residential substance abuse treatment program, the individuals are allowed to participate in activities outdoor that give them a stress free atmosphere that is more relaxing and fun than the lives they once led. However, aside from the fun, the individuals have to assume particular responsibilities in the house such as cleaning and participating in other duties. Each individual has to also go to therapy on a daily basis so that the therapist can monitor and control their progress and behavior. This is personalized treatment that is specific to each individual. Of course, there are group therapy sessions that also benefit the individual. In group therapy, opportunities are open to share stories with the other residents and gather a learning experience from what is heard. They will also form new friendships with their peers and enter into a lifetime bond on many occasions. In these therapy sessions, the therapist will provide essential advice and permit the individuals to talk amongst each other in the general forum so that every one can hear and be inspired and encouraged. There are also specific educational sessions that will allow the recovering addict to be more equipped when going out to search for gainful employment. They will have the assistance of professionals that will show them how to build their resume and how to effectively interview for a job. This is important because the residents are expected to start looking for a job as soon as they come into the residential substance abuse treatment program. They are given a specific period of time to get that job and will be given as much help as they need to do so. Some who don't show the interest or don't want to work will be kicked out of the program at best. Another reason for being kicked out of the program is deliberately disobeying the rules and guidelines that are set in place for all residents.
