Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Brookside, NJ.

When a person has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as easy as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery 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 term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Brookside are operated by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to make sure there isn't any drug use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse rehab facility.
