Key Takeaway Key Takeaway: Halfway houses for skid row alcoholics do not significantly contribute to rehabilitation due to research limitations and unclear data.
Abstract
Abstract A critical review of research reports on halfway house programs for alcoholics indicated that most of these reports have serious shortcomings regarding their clarity and in the quality and quantity of reported data. Such data as were presented do not lend support to the notion that halfway houses make a substantial contribution to the rehabilitation of skid row alcoholics.
