Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Oak Ridge, TN.

When an individual has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of determination. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place 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 term of a person's probation or parole for example, or the individual might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, occupants of a Halfway House are sober and striving to do what they need to do to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Oak Ridge are operated by people who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is permitted to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue randomly to ensure there is not any substance use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately dealt with in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
