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

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, 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 determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment 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 person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Sterling are run by individuals who in most instances were once tenants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually 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 randomly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction rehab program.
