Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - West Springfield Town, MA.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in West Springfield Town are run by people who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
