Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Mercedes, TX.

When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Mercedes are managed by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue randomly to ensure there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction rehab program.
