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

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Fairhaven are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen randomly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility.
