Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Jacksonville, OH.

When an individual has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can live in a sober and positive environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's probation or parole for example, or someone may decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Jacksonville are operated by individuals who in most cases were once residents of the house. The length of time a person is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo 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 drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction rehab facility.
