Freedom Lake Transitional Housing

Veterans Supporting Veterans:

A Path to Independence

Our Transitional Management Team carefully screens all potential residents and continuously monitors their progress to ensure compliance with program expectations and standards.

This program serves as a transitional step designed to help Veterans sustain long-term recovery and personal growth—offering support for up to 24 months as they work toward stability and independence.

Three Levels of Transitional Living

Our structured model includes three levels of transitional housing, each offering increasing independence and decreasing oversight:

Level 1: Highly structured, with close monitoring and maximum accountability
Level 2: Moderate oversight with more personal responsibility
Level 3: Least restrictive, encouraging independent decision-making

As Veterans advance through the levels, they develop essential life skills to shift from dependency to independence.

Holistic Learning & Life Skills Development

Residents engage in a wide variety of educational topics and hands-on experiences, including:

Faith & personal responsibility
Psychological wellness & emotional self-regulation
Sustainable living practices
Financial literacy & money management
Trade skills & hands-on training
Healthy habits & wellness (yoga, biking, farming)
Recreational therapies (fishing, bee-keeping, community building)

A Place for Veterans to Heal, Grow, and Rebuild

Our program offers Veterans a safe and supportive environment to focus on their future and acquire valuable life and job skills. We maintain a zero-tolerance policy toward drug use, violence, and threatening behavior to ensure the safety and well-being of all residents.

Structure and Purpose
Residents follow a structured routine designed to promote responsibility, accountability, and personal growth. Each resident is expected to maintain:

Daily house responsibilities
Volunteer work to give back to the community
Employment or enrollment in educational programs
Participation in weekly house meetings with fellow residents

Support and Oversight
Our mission is rooted in community, connection, and growth—Veterans working together to support one another on the journey to self-sufficiency. We are committed to empowering every Veteran to achieve self-reliance and live with dignity. Freedom Lake is supervised by a dedicated house manager who ensures residents have the resources and support they need to succeed. All property managers are long-term residents of Freedom Lake who live by our guiding principle:
