When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a sober 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 for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.
Halfway Houses in Marshfield Hills are run by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is permitted 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 submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction recovery facility.
