Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Mertens, TX.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Mertens are managed by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
