Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Douglas, MA.

When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Douglas are operated by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen randomly to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
