Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Great Barrington, MA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Great Barrington are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
