Halfway House - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Big Stone Gap, VA.

When a person has rehabilitated from a substance abuse problem, it isn't as simple as picking up 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 live in a drug and alcohol free and supportive setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a condition of a person's probation or parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol treatment. Either way, tenants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, finding employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Big Stone Gap are run by individuals who in many instances were once residents of the house. The duration an individual is allowed to remain at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Tenants are required to undergo drug and alcohol testing before entering the house, and this testing will continue regularly to make sure there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately handled in a drug or alcohol rehab program.
