Family Care Authority
extends halfway houses
social reintegration program
to include aftercare service
(ABU DHABI)
-
The Family Care Authority
(FCA) has launched the
Aftercare Service as the
second phase of the Halfway
Houses project, marking a
key component of its
Integrated Care Model. The
initiative enhances recovery
pathways by offering
flexible, high-quality
treatment programs that do
not require inpatient
residency.
Designed
for individuals who have
completed residential care
or whose conditions do not
necessitate inpatient
treatment, the Aftercare
Service provides specialized
programs, including
individual and group
therapy, social skills
development, relapse
prevention, and family
support.
The service
is designed for patients
with mild to moderate
addiction who are of legal
age, have completed
detoxification, and require
ongoing support. Committed
to their rehabilitation,
these individuals benefit
from a structured and
supportive environment that
ensures continued recovery.
It also provides care for
individuals who have
completed the Halfway House
residential treatment
program.
Operating at
full capacity, the service
is provided by a dedicated
team of specialists,
delivering care that meets
the highest psychological
and behavioral health
standards and ensuring an
effective treatment
experience with a lasting
impact on the recovery
journey.
Her
Excellency Salama Al Ameemi,
Director General of the
Family Care Authority, said:
“The Aftercare Service
implements our wise
leadership’s vision of a
cohesive society by
empowering individuals and
strengthening family bonds
and enforcing social
stability. Aligning with the
Abu Dhabi Integrated
Strategy to Combat
Addiction, the service
provides a comprehensive,
research-based treatment
framework that drives
sustainable recovery and
facilitates the
reintegration of individuals
as productive members of
society.”
Rashid Saeed Aldhaheri,
Halfway Houses Section Head
at the Family Care
Authority, said:
“We believe that recovery
extends beyond inpatient
care, requiring ongoing,
structured support to ensure
psychological well-being,
independence, and effective
social reintegration. The
Aftercare Service embodies
FCA’s dedication to
pioneering mental health and
social services that drive
lasting and measurable
impact.”
