Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Edgewater, NJ.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as 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 condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person might 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 they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Edgewater are managed by individuals who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must comply with alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will happen regularly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in an alcohol or drug treatment facility.
