Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - New Brunswick, NJ.

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as simple as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable 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 live in a sober and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in New Brunswick are run by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. How long an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation program.
