Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Burlington, WV.

When someone has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again 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 a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and positive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Burlington are operated by individuals who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place frequently to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse treatment facility.
