Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Margate, FL.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Margate are managed by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long 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 submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehab facility.
