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

When a person has conquered drug or alcohol addiction, it isn't as easy as picking up where you left off. Returning to a stable and happy life takes time and a lot of effort. A Halfway House, also called a Sober Living Facility, is a place where recovering individuals can go where they can live in a sober and healthy environment until they are able to live stably on their own. Living in a Halfway House may be a requirement of a person's parole for example, or the person could decide to live in a Halfway House of their own will after drug or alcohol treatment. In either case, residents of a Halfway House are drug and alcohol free and working towards doing what they need to do to get their lives back on track. This could mean getting one's GED, getting employment, etc.

Halfway Houses in Lackey are run by people who in many instances were once occupants of the house. How long a person is permitted to live at the Halfway House will differ, but it's commonly anywhere from a month to a couple of years. Residents are required to comply with alcohol and drug testing before being accepted into the house, and this testing will continue regularly to be certain there is not any drug use in the house or substance abuse problems that would be more effectively addressed in an alcohol or drug treatment program.
