Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Westwood, NJ.

When someone has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Restoring a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean finishing school, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Westwood are run by people who in most instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing before entering the house, and this testing will take place regularly to ensure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
