Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Winters, CA.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants 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, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Winters are run by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse recovery facility.
