Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Amherst, TX.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. 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, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Amherst are managed by people who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
