Are they single sex or mixed? and what is the average age, or is there a teenage half-way house? I want to do some voluntary work and I am not sure where to start or what it would involve. I feel I should give something back to society.

That is an admirable thing for you to do.
I do some volunteer work in a Soup Kitchen (meals only - no sleeping), people from all walks of life call in for food.
I suggest you check out each one in your area.
Other workers there will happily give you information about conditions etc.

People break the law and have to do community service work or even are assigned to do work less appealing than this. Why do you want to go into a half way house when you could be helping senior citizen's centers or somewhere else less dangerous! Really, change your scope and your intentions. Don't go into unfamiliar territory!

Well the term 'half way house' is so old! I don't think it is politically correct anymore. So there is no such thing as a half way house! It is quite insulting to anyone who has needs.
