Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Saddle River, NJ.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Saddle River are managed by people who in most instances were once residents 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. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place intermittently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in a substance abuse recovery program.
