Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Ashland, MA.

When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and healthy setting 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 the person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Ashland are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in an addiction treatment program.
