Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - West Burke, VT.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean 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 West Burke are managed by people who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction treatment program.
