Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Atherton, CA.

When someone has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and supportive 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 might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Atherton are managed by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug rehab program.
