| Sees-the-Day, Inc., located
in York, Pennsylvania, operates as a three-quarter or transitional
housing program. It differs from a halfway house in part because
there is no formal or professional counseling on-site. Residents
are encouraged to attend aftercare sessions at outpatient
facilities within the community. Moreover, house members are
required to be actively involved in a 12-Step recovery program.
They must attend AA or NA meetings daily (90 meetings in 90
days). Residents are also required to maintain employment
or perform at least 25 hours of community service weekly.
Members' responsibilities include participation in the day-to-day
operations of the house.
Sees-the-Day, Inc. is not affiliated with any state or federal
agencies and is mainly supported through the residents' weekly
rent
and food monies.
