Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - St. Joseph, TN.

When an individual has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as easy as resuming where you left off. Getting back to a positive and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is an environment where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy setting until they can live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or someone might make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord after drug or alcohol rehab. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in St. Joseph are managed by individuals who in most instances were once occupants of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants are required to undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to entering the house, and this testing will continue intermittently to be certain there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more effectively handled in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
