Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - St. Marks, FL.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a clean and supportive environment until they can 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 individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in St. Marks are run by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
