Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Somers Point, NJ.

When an individual has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a lot of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation for example, or the individual could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, 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 Somers Point are managed by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. How long a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to ensure there isn't any substance use in the house or addiction issues that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction rehab facility.
