Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Shutesbury, MA.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot 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 drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Shutesbury are managed by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
