Alternative Housing - Transitional Living

A halfway house is a transitional living facility where an individual who is trying to recover from drug or alcohol addiction can stabilize and re-acclimate to life and society. A halfway house is a location where the person can feel safe and rebuild their life while maintaining sobriety while also participate in activities which will help them do just that. Halfway houses supply an ideal opportunity for recovering addicts to be in an environment where they can receive additional counseling and different types of therapy while also learning new trades or discovering stable employment so that they can support a healthy and productive, drug-free life.
