Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Valley Springs, SD.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Valley Springs are operated by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately handled in a substance abuse rehab program.
