Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Edwardsville, VA.

When someone 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 effort. 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 clean and sober and healthy setting until they can live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a term of a person's parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own accord following drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Edwardsville are operated by people who in many cases were once tenants of the house. The length of time an individual is permitted to stay at the Halfway House can vary, but it's usually anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Occupants must undergo alcohol and drug testing prior to being accepted into the house, and this testing will take place frequently to make sure there is not any drug or alcohol use in the house or addiction problems that would be more adequately dealt with in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
