Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - East Taunton, MA.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in East Taunton are operated by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly 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 ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
