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

When a person has overcome drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as resuming where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a setting where people in recovery can go where they can live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and striving to do what is necessary to get their lives back on track. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Northwood are managed by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time a person is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place randomly to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug rehabilitation program.
