Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Huntsville, TX.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Huntsville are run by people who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
