It seems to validate the value that both Central Avenue Apartments (CAA) and City House provide. Specifically, individuals at CAA appear successful at avoiding chemical dependency relapse and maintaining housing across the board. This speaks well to the CAA model. The City House participants, however, have much higher rates of involvement (as measured by work and volunteer rates), indicating the City House serves to complement the CAA's strengths.
