Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Melvin, AL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, 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 Melvin are run by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehab facility.
