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

When an individual has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Longport are run by individuals who in many cases were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse rehab program.
