Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Lakewood, CA.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the person might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lakewood are operated by individuals who in many instances were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen regularly to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug rehab facility.
