Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - St. Lawrence, SD.

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in St. Lawrence are operated by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse treatment facility.
