Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Oakland, MS.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oakland are run by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place randomly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse recovery facility.
