Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - South Lake Tahoe, CA.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, 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 an environment where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and supportive environment 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 someone could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in South Lake Tahoe are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately addressed in a substance abuse rehab program.
