Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Barnstable Town, MA.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Barnstable Town are managed by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
