Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Lakewood, NJ.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lakewood are operated by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen intermittently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an addiction recovery facility.
