Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - North Amherst, MA.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in North Amherst are managed by people who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse treatment facility.
