Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Alberta, AL.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a clean and supportive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Alberta are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse treatment facility.
