Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Brooklyn, AL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Brooklyn are managed by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
