Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Halifax, MA.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Halifax are operated by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
