Halfway House - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Elkwood, VA.

When a person has rehabilitated from a drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Getting back to a successful and happy life takes time and a great deal of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where people in recovery can live in a clean and sober and healthy setting until they are able to live confidently on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person may make the decision to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol rehab. In either case, occupants of a Halfway House are clean and sober and striving to do what is necessary to repair their lives. This could mean, for example, getting one's GED, finding a job, etc.

Halfway Houses in Elkwood are managed by people who in many cases were once occupants of the house. The length of time 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. Residents must submit to drug and alcohol testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue frequently to be certain there isn't any drug or alcohol use in the house or substance abuse issues that would be more adequately handled in an addiction rehabilitation facility.
