Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Lakewood, OH.

When someone has overcome substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, also known as a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and healthy 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 make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lakewood are operated by people who in most instances were once tenants of the house. How long a person is allowed to remain at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must undergo drug and alcohol testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will happen frequently to ensure there is not any drug use in the house or addiction issues that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
