Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Melrose, MA.

When a person has overcome substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a clean and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants 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 getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Melrose are operated by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into 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 effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehab program.
