After clients complete the 90 day program, they may opt for a 45 day extension in our vocational rehab program.  This allows clients to look for gainful employment while remaining in a safe, sober environment.  Many of our clients decide to apply for a Pell-grant and enroll at CPCC.  During this time, the client usually remains in his therapeutic job slot (unless he has outside employment).  They are still required to attend AA or NA meetings.

After the 45 day extension, clients may then apply to move into our half way house.  This building is located next to our main campus building and has 14 beds and a full time counselor on staff.  Clients must have a job in order to stay and are required to pay a program fee.  This is a stepping stone back into society.  Again, they remain in a sober environment and are contributing members of society.  Some clients move into the half way house and are hired at Charlotte Rescue Mission  to perform various job duties such as van drivers, facility techs & med techs.
