Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Empire, OH.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as resuming where you left off. Restoring a successful and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where recovering individuals can live in a drug and alcohol free and positive environment until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's probation for example, or the person could make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, residents of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, finishing school, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Empire are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. How long 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. Tenants must submit to drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there isn't any drug use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in a drug or alcohol rehab facility.
