Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Everglades City, FL.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. 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 clean and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Everglades City are operated by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an addiction treatment program.
