Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Andover, NH.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Andover are operated by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must submit to alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place regularly to be certain there isn't any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively handled in a substance abuse treatment program.
