Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Gulf Shores, AL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Gulf Shores are run by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction rehab facility.
