Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Portsmouth, NH.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a 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 probation or parole for example, or the individual might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Portsmouth are operated by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants must comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
