Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Palo Alto, CA.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Palo Alto are operated by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The duration a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
