Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Boston, VA.

When someone has conquered substance abuse problem, it's not as simple as starting life again where you left off. Returning to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of hard work. A Halfway House, a.k.a. a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a sober and supportive environment 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 the person might decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Boston are operated by individuals who in many cases were once residents of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to live at the Halfway House can vary, but it's typically 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 make sure there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more adequately addressed in an addiction rehab program.
