Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Mercer, ND.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Mercer are managed by people who in most cases were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
