Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Andover, MA.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Andover are run by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation program.
