Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Washington, CT.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and healthy environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Washington are operated by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted 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 comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
