Prolonged mental and physical impairment due to acute addiction/ alcoholism markedly restricts the ability to perform basic activities of daily living. Most are unable to perceive, think, remember or manage personal affairs. We believe it is necessary for the recovering alcoholic/ addict to undergo a profound alteration of their perception of life and to acquire spiritual values, while respecting personal religious, cultural, and moral values.

After Care

At Path To Freedom, we offer second-stage housing and an after-care program which is available post treatment, where men can integrate back into society and their community. At the second-stage home, men maintain the structured program, but they can also return to work and/or school as they rebuild their lives.
