About Alco Halfway House
Alco Halfway House is a nonprofit alcohol and drug rehab facility that has served the Jacksonville, Florida, community since 1967. Although it’s not as famous as Miami or Orlando, Jacksonville is the state’s most populous city by far. The seaside metropolis is home to miles of scenic beaches and a vast public park system, offering an inviting “getaway” setting for recovery, with access to big-city amenities. This center, located on Hubbard Street, is staffed by people who have personally recovered from substance use and are dedicated to helping others. They offer residential treatment for men and women.
Alco Halfway House provides a secure, stable, and supportive environment in which to start recovery. Once you’re admitted you’ll receive a one to two hour consultation then enter dormitory housing. Here you’ll receive constant supervision and round the clock support from trained professionals. You’ll attend individual counseling sessions and group meetings, where you’ll start to address the cause of your addiction and foster relationships with your housemates.
When you and your care team decide you’re ready you can transition to three-quarters housing. This type of transitional housing is still highly supervised, and you’ll need to continue attending regular group meetings. However, it provides more autonomy. This way you can start to get a feel for what it will be like living as an independent, healthy person, while still having a safety net.
The organization aims to keep their fees more affordable than for-profit addiction treatment facilities. In addition to housing, support groups and counseling, their weekly fees include job readiness coaching, meals, drug testing, laundry facilities and cable TV.

Other Forms of Payment
Private insurance refers to any kind of healthcare coverage that isn't from the state or federal government. This includes individual and family plans offered by an employer or purchased from the Insurance Marketplace. Every plan will have different requirements and out of pocket costs so be sure to get the full details before you start treatment.
Self-pay involves paying for treatment out of your own pocket. You can use savings or credit, get a personal loan, or receive help from family and friends to fund your treatment. If you don't have insurance or your insurance plan doesn't cover a specific program, self-pay can help ensure you still get the care you need.

The goal of treatment for alcoholism is abstinence. Those with poor social support, poor motivation, or psychiatric disorders tend to relapse within a few years of treatment. For these people, success is measured by longer periods of abstinence, reduced use of alcohol, better health, and improved social functioning. Recovery and Maintenance are usually based on 12 step programs and AA meetings.

Group therapy is any therapeutic work that happens in a group (not one-on-one). There are a number of different group therapy modalities, including support groups, experiential therapy, psycho-education, and more. Group therapy involves treatment as well as processing interaction between group members.
In individual therapy, a patient meets one-on-one with a trained psychologist or counselor. Therapy is a pivotal part of effective substance abuse treatment, as it often covers root causes of addiction, including challenges faced by the patient in their social, family, and work/school life.
As a short term therapeutic method, motivational interviewing in Florida requires only a couple of sessions. During these sessions, you'll have the opportunity to talk about your circumstances and any discrepancies between your current situation and future goals. You'll then decide for yourself what changes you want to make.
Recreational therapy helps you recover from addiction by giving you structured activities that promote your physical health and mental well being. These activities could range from sports and fitness to creative arts and provide a constructive outlet for your emotions and stress.
