Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Gilcrest, CO.

When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive setting until they are able to live stably 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 will following drug or alcohol treatment. 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 Gilcrest are managed by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehab program.
