Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Ruth, MS.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. 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 environment 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 the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Ruth are managed by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen randomly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
