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

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Ontario are operated by individuals who in most cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug recovery facility.
