Alternative Housing - Transitional Living

A halfway house is a transitional living facility where a person who is recovering from alcohol or drug addiction can find support and re-adjust to life and society. A halfway house is a place where someone can feel safe and repair their life while maintaining sobriety while also participate in activities which will help them do just that. Halfway houses supply the perfect opportunity for individuals to be in a setting where they can acquire further counseling and different types of therapy while also learning new trades or discovering stable employment so that they can support a healthy and drug free lifestyle.
