Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Lawrence, KS.

When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's parole for example, or someone might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lawrence are managed by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen randomly to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation facility.
