Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Elmwood Park, NJ.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful 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 live in a clean and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Elmwood Park are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to submit to drug and alcohol testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a substance abuse rehabilitation program.
