Question by jettjohanna: I want to start a half way House for addicts as well as their family members who are affected. How do I start?
I would like to help those who are addicts and are trying to stay clean. Also I know how hard it is to be family members and want to help the spouces as well as the childrean who have no place to go. I am thinking that housing that would be very reasonable as well as short term till they can get back on their feet. I know there are not any or many places of this nature for them and there are a lot of people who need help here in St Charles, MO that no one talks about. How do I start?
