Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Gainesville, GA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, 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, 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 condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Gainesville are operated by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehab facility.
