Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Opelousas, LA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and positive setting until they are able to 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 individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Opelousas are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
