Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Emma, MO.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Emma are operated by people who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering 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 adequately handled in an addiction rehab facility.
