Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Ben Franklin, TX.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive 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 someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are 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 Ben Franklin are run by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue randomly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a drug or alcohol recovery facility.
