Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Alexandria, SD.

When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Alexandria are run by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
