Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Melrose, NY.

When someone has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a clean and sober and positive environment until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and 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 Melrose are managed by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. How long an individual is allowed to stay at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to be certain there is not any substance use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively dealt with in a substance abuse treatment program.
