Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Atkinson, NH.

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and supportive setting 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 person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Atkinson are managed by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in a drug or alcohol treatment facility.
