Alternative Housing - Transitional Living

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