Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Carlisle, MA.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy 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 known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Carlisle are managed by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction treatment facility.
