Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Irvington, NJ.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a sober and healthy environment until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or someone could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Irvington are managed by people who in most cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol recovery program.
