Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Rutherford, NJ.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as easy as starting life again where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where people in recovery can go where they can live in a clean and sober and positive 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 clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Rutherford are operated by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The duration a person is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively dealt with in a drug or alcohol rehabilitation program.
