Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Van Nuys, CA.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and positive environment 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 could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Van Nuys are operated by individuals who in most cases were once tenants of the house. How long 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. Tenants are required to comply with drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to make sure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
