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

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Westwood are operated by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug recovery facility.
