Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Shorter, AL.

When an individual has overcome 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 great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they 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 requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Shorter are managed by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol treatment program.
