Volunteers of Americas Halfway Back program provides residential alcohol and drug treatment to men recovering from addiction and exiting a correctional facility. This 50-bed treatment program uses a Twelve Step, evidence-based clinical services recovery approach, and men live in the Milieu Therapy setting for six to eight months.

Halfway Back allows men to engage in an individualized case plan that promotes greater accountability and ownership for living a healthy lifestyle. In addition to Twelve Step meetings and recovery groups, residents are expected to participate in individual and group counseling, life skills training, GED education, and employment readiness assessment and training.
Clients attend psycho-educational sessions including relapse prevention, anger and stress management, errors in thinking, spirituality, HIV prevention, and healthy family relationship education. Halfway Back supports residents in their efforts to return to their communities as healthy and contributing members.
