Transitional Support Services (TSS), also known as “holding,” are short-term residential programs for individuals who need further stabilization after detoxification.
Admission is limited to clients discharged from ATS and homeless clients. The average length of stay is 14-21 days. TSS programs provide 24-hour, structured, supportive residential housing and services using case management and psycho-education to assist clients in implementing an Individual Service Plan (ISP). ISPs outline the support and services the client needs to achieve their goals.
Case managers provide linkages and interagency collaboration to next-step programs and assist clients in obtaining the credentials necessary to apply for social service benefits (e.g., copy of birth certificate, identification).
