Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Shelby, MS.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a clean and supportive environment 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 someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Shelby are managed by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration 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. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
