Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Gibson, MO.

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Gibson are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse rehab facility.
