Alternative Housing - Transitional Living

A halfway house is a transitional living facility where an individual who is trying to recover from alcohol or drug addiction can find support and re-adjust to life and society as a drug free individual. A halfway house is a place where the person can feel secure and rebuild their life while maintaining sobriety while also participate in clean and sober, productive activities. Halfway houses are the perfect opportunity for recovering addicts to be in an environment where they can acquire further counseling and different types of therapy while also learning new trades or obtaining stable employment so that they can support a healthy and drug free lifestyle.
